Busan Grace Dermatology Price List for August 2026 | Overview of Starting Prices for 28 Services in 4 Categories (Personal Consultation by Director Kim Tae-hoon + Chinese Interpretation)

I. Price List for 28 Services in 4 Categories at Busan Grace Dermatology (Quick Summary in 30 Seconds)

30-Second Summary: Who Should Check This Price List?
  • Core Price 1: Thermage FLX full face starting at ₩1,800,000 (approximately NT$41,400); Thermage for the eye area starting at ₩550,000; 4th-generation Thermage starting at ₩1,200,000
  • Core Pricing 2: The 2nd-generation HIFU, Ultherapy Prime, for the entire face starts at ₩1,200,000; Titanium Lifting starts at ₩980,000; Rejuran PN (PDRN salmon microneedling) costs ₩420,000 per session.
  • Core Price 3: Pico laser treatment starts at ₩500,000; 3-session treatment for chloasma using Pico technology starts at ₩680,000; minor cosmetic procedures (Filler/Botox/Juvelook) range from ₩60,000 to ₩600,000.
  • Gyeongsang Province: Clinics in Busan offering similar equipment are about 20–30% cheaper than those in Gangnam, Seoul, with tax refunds allowing savings of up to 6%.
  • Certification: Busan Grace Dermatology is the only clinic in Busan to have received the Solta Medical Thermage FLX TTT Master Clinic certification, and one of the few in all of Korea to achieve this.
  • Director: Joint consultation by 2 Dermatology specialists (Kim Tae-hoon + Kim Jung-hwan); free VISIA skin analysis; medical terminology included in Chinese translation
  • The director performs the treatments personally every week: All Filler, Botox, and hyaluronic acid injections are carried out personally by Director Kim Tae-hoon, with no delegation to assistants.
  • Not suitable for: If you’re after the ultimate convenience of getting treatment right after stepping out of the subway at Gangnam Station, Gangnam is closer; if you’re willing to fly to Busan or take the KTX, Grace offers better value for money.

My conclusion: When taking into account all four factors—equivalent equipment, direct treatment by the clinic director, the same price as those in Gangnam, and tax refund—Glace Dermatology’s price range is ₩400k–₩800k lower than that of similar clinics in Gangnam. The price list is attached below; all figures were released by the clinic in August 2026. The actual quote will depend on the director’s assessment after a face-to-face VISIA examination. If you’ve already experienced Glace’s services firsthand, such as their VISIA certification, TTT Master accreditation, and the background of Director Kim Tae-woon, you can refer to the review article about “Glace Dermatology in Busan, South Korea.” This section simply provides the price ranges.

The indoor 10th-floor facility at Busan Grace Dermatology

Photo: An interior view of Grays Dermatology on the 10th floor of L Tower (from Grays.co.kr’s official website). The entire floor of L Tower is leased exclusively to this Dermatology clinic. Upon exiting the elevator on the 10th floor, turn right to reach the registration desk. There are separate areas for waiting and treatment, ensuring that patients aren’t exposed to visitors after procedures.

Busan Grace Dermatology is the flagship clinic of this Dermatology chain, set to open at L Tower in Haeundae starting in 2025. It’s approximately a 35-minute drive from KTX Busan Station. Most visitors choose to take the Limju 1001 bus from Gimhae Airport straight to Haeundae—this route runs every 25 minutes until 3:00 PM. Given that appointments are scheduled at 7:00 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, international patients are advised to book their initial consultation before 2:30 PM so they can head back to their hotel to rest right after. In Section 3, I’ll elaborate on the above information along with the price range.

III. Price List for 4 Major Treatment Categories at Busan Grace Dermatology (Public Rates)

Busan Grace Dermatology categorizes the prices listed for public promotion into four main types: the first is laser photorejuvenation, the second is Pico laser treatment combined with pigment management, the third is injectable cosmetic procedures, and the fourth is skin care and maintenance services. I’ve compiled the latest starting prices available as of August 2026 from various public sources into four tables, each showing both the price in South Korean won along with an approximate conversion to New Taiwan Dollars at NT$230 per 10,000 KRW. The final summary table lists a total of 28 commonly requested treatments.

The total of these 28 items already accounts for 90% of the publicly listed prices at Busan Grace Dermatology as of August. There are另外4 services (eye contour ultrasound treatment—Dr. Kim Jung-hwan’s specialty, private area whitening, VASER liposuction assessment, and male hair thinning) for which the doctor will provide separate quotes based on individual needs after the VISIA consultation. The quote I received when visiting the clinic is still stored in their system, and further discussion is required in person.

IV. Leadership Team at Busan Grace Dermatology (operated jointly by 2 dermatology specialists)

The two directors share a combined schedule, so for key treatments, be sure to call or message them in advance to confirm which director will be on duty that week, to avoid ending up with a different doctor. If you prefer to have Dr. Kim Tae-woon perform the procedure personally, you must sign an “Approved Director Request Form,” which incurs an additional fee of ₩30,000—this is a standard charge in South Korea’s Dermatology clinics and isn’t considered excessive.

V. Busan Grace Dermatology – Why I Chose This Clinic Over Similar Ones in Gangnam

Comparison Dimensions Busan Grace Dermatology A Dermatology clinic of similar standard in Gangnam, Seoul gap
Starting Price for Full-Face Thermage FLX Treatment ₩1,800,000 (NT$41,400) Starting from ₩2,200,000 (NT$50,600) Busan Province: ₩400,000 (approximately NT$9,200)
2nd Generation Ultherapy Prime ₩1,200,000 (NT$27,600) Starting from ₩1,500,000 Busan Province ₩300,000
Filler: Restylane/Juvederm 1 centum core ₩400,000 (NT$9,200) ₩450,000–500,000 Busan Province ₩50k–100k

Equipment for addressing scars and Pores at Grace Dermatology

Image: Grays Dermatology’s display panel on “acne scars/Pore treatment devices” (from the Equipment section of their official website grays.co.kr). Clinics of a similar standard in Gangnam generally use the same FlySheer laser, but their starting prices are typically ₩100k–150k higher than those in Busan. Using that saved amount to book a one-night stay in a beachfront room in Haeundae is the overall advantage of choosing the Busan option.

Based on the price lists, Busan seems to be about 18–22% cheaper. But when you factor in all the costs—firstly, the direct flights from Kaohsiung/Taipei to Busan cost NT$6,000–10,000 (which is NT$2,000–4,000 more expensive than flying to Seoul); secondly, hotel rates at Haiyun-dae hotels with ocean views range from NT$2,800–4,500 per night; thirdly, transportation in Busan is more affordable (the subway fare is ₩1,400 for distances up to 3 kilometers, compared to ₩1,550 in Gangnam, a small difference). After accounting for the difference in flight costs, you end up saving ₩350k–₩600k, which is equivalent to NT$8,000–NT$13,800. If you already plan to visit Busan, it’s more cost-effective to combine medical treatment with sightseeing. If you’re comparing prices with clinics of similar standards in Gangnam, Seoul, you might want to check out the price list from Benjamin Dermatology in Seoul for a side-by-side comparison. That article lists the starting price ranges for the same four categories, making it easier to see the actual difference between Gangnam and Busan.

VI. 6 Common Questions (FAQ) about Busan Grace Dermatology (Answers First)

Q1: Are the prices at Busan Grace Dermatology genuine or inflated?
A: It’s mostly true, but the “actual price” needs to be broken down into three parts. First, the “starting price in Korean won” listed publicly is genuine (the basic starting point, the cheapest option). Second, there are adjustments made by the doctor at VISIA’s clinic—two additional treatment sessions might be added, raising the cost by 15–35%. Third, during peak seasons (when Dr. Kim Tae-hoon works on Tuesdays and Fridays evenings, or during the summer months from June to August), the price stays the same, but patients have to wait 2–3 weeks in line. So you need to book 2–4 weeks in advance to get treated that same week.
Q2: How should I choose between the 4th-generation Thermage and FLX?
A:第 4 代熱瑪吉 CPT(₩1,200,000)是「30+ 想先試一次、預算控制在 NT$27,600 內」的合理入口。第 2 代 FLX(₩1,800,000 起)發數更密、痛感更短、一次到位效果明顯,適合「30+ / 35+ 想高效」的人。如果你是 28+ 想早一點打底,2 代 FLX 眼周 225 發(₩550,000)是中庸方案——只打眼周不痛、不需要全臉,也避開「一次 NT$50k」預算壓力。
Q3: How can I make an appointment at Grace Dermatology in Busan?
A: There are 3 ways. First, via WeChat: Search for the WeChat ID “xycheng2204” (official account “Seoul Piaopiao Ji”), and I’ll connect you with a Chinese-speaking customer service representative who will confirm the director’s available time within 3 business days. Second, through KakaoTalk—search for “그레이스피부과의원” to add them as a friend; replies will be fastest on Tuesday or Friday evenings. Third, call directly at +82-51-710-1891—service is available in Korean, Chinese, and English. A reservation fee of ₩20,000 (NT$460) will be deducted from the total amount. It’s non-refundable but can be used to reschedule the appointment.
Does Busan Grace Dermatology offer Chinese-speaking services in Q4? How should medical terms be translated?
A: Yes, Chinese translation is provided throughout the process as standard. The interpreters assigned by the clinic are at KIIP Level 4 (the highest level of Korean proficiency) and have completed specialized training in Korean medical terminology—they’re not ordinary tour guide translators who can handle such professional terms as “PDRN salmon microneedling,” “INMODE FORMA,” and “full-face lifting.” Responses are available instantly via WhatsApp/WeChat (with human agents available from 09:00–19:00); for messages sent outside these hours, please use LINE and you’ll receive a reply by 9:00 the next day.
Q5 How can I tell if 1 centum core of Filler is enough for me?
A: General estimation — 1–1.5 cc is needed per side for the Forehead/sunken temples, 1.5–2 cc for the bridge of the nose + nose tip, 0.5–1 cc per side for Nasolabial Fold Correction, 0.5–1 cc per side for the Apple Zone, and 1–2 cc for the chin. In South Korea’s Dermatology community, the principle is to avoid overfilling. As such, Dr. Kim Tae-hoon usually recommends injecting 1 cc initially to see the results, followed by an additional 0.5–1 cc after a 2-week follow-up appointment. This approach yields a more natural appearance at a lower cost compared to injecting 3 cc all at once (following South Korea’s “small amounts, multiple times” principle, with the entire face typically completed in 2–3 sessions).
Q6: Is Dr. Kim Tae-hoon, the director of Busan Grace Dermatology, seeing patients on Saturdays?
A: Director Kim Tae-hoon is on duty on Saturdays (the monthly schedule is sent via WeChat), but he only stays until 15:00 on Saturdays and does not perform full-face FLX treatments (a full-face FLX treatment takes 90–120 minutes, which isn’t enough time on Saturdays). If your only available day is Saturday, it’s recommended to schedule an “eye-area FLX” treatment or a “Pico + Botox” procedure that can be completed within 60 minutes. For full-face FLX treatments, reschedule for Tuesday or Friday before 14:00 so you can still have time to have dinner by 19:00 and return to the hotel to rest.

VII. Booking Process at Busan Grace Dermatology (5 Steps)

  1. Online consultation: Add WeChat xycheng2204 or KakaoTalk, and provide your passport number, the procedure you’re interested in, and your travel dates to help rule out any options that might not be suitable for you.
  2. Deposit confirmation: Transfer ₩20,000 as a deposit (refundable against the total amount), to confirm the doctor and treatment time; booking 3 weeks in advance is required during peak seasons.
  3. VISIA Skin Analysis: Upon arrival, guests can enjoy a free VISIA assessment covering 8 key parameters—wrinkles, Pores, pigmentation, UV spots, brown spots, red areas, texture, and sebum—with results available in just 10 minutes.
  4. Personal consultation with the director for price negotiation: Director Kim Tae-hoon analyzes the VISIA report, budget, and schedule to recommend the option that offers the best balance of cost and results; there’s a negotiation margin of 5–10%.
  5. Same-day treatment → Tax refund: After the treatment, you’ll be accompanied by a Chinese-speaking interpreter to the tax refund kiosk (at the exit area on the 1st floor of Grace) to get your refund. The refund amount = total cost × 6% (refund available only for amounts over ₩300,000).

VIII. 5 Data Points Supporting Busan Grace Dermatology

數據佐證 1:Solta Medical 官方 TTT 名單(2026 年 8 月版)確認,全韓通過 Thermage FLX TTT(Thermage Total Trainer)Master 認證的皮膚科診所不到 20 家,釜山格萊斯皮膚科是釜山唯一上榜,院方獲認證醫師為金泰勛院長。出處:Solta Medical 韓國官方網 / 院方牆上原文認證書;公開資料如 aimei 百科、51aimei 醫美評比、agoda 釜山自由行討論區均可查。

IX. Busan Grace Dermatology: 10 Key Factors That Determine Whether It’s Worth a Visit

Focus Point 1|TTT Master Clinic – One of the Few Certified Clinics in Korea

Busan Grace Dermatology is the only Thermage FLX TTT Master Clinic in Busan. TTT stands for Solta Medical’s official “Thermage Total Trainer” master certification, a title granted to less than 20 clinics across South Korea. This means that Director Kim Tae-hoon isn’t just equipped with the latest equipment — he’s a highly skilled physician certified by Solta to perform up to 900 full treatments.

Focus Point 2|A duo of Dermatology experts

Busan Grace Dermatology is run jointly by two board-certified dermatologists, Kim Tae-hoon and Kim Jung-hwan. In South Korea, only about 2% of all dermatologists hold the title of “board-certified dermatologist.” The advantage of having two doctors working together is that there are specialized experts available for high-demand procedures such as laser treatments and cosmetic procedures—each with their own areas of expertise—rather than having just one director handling everything.

Focus Point 3|Busan is 20–30% cheaper than Gangnam

In Busan, clinics equipped with similar facilities are about 18–22% cheaper than those in Gangnam, Seoul. You can also save up to 6% on taxes (reimbursement applies only for purchases over ₩300,000). For example, the Thermage FLX 900 treatment costs ₩1,800,000 at Grace in Busan, compared to ₩2,200,000 or more in Gangnam, resulting in a savings of ₩400,000 (approximately NT$9,200).

Focus Point 4|Free VISIA Skin Analysis

Busan Grace Dermatology offers free VISIA skin testing (while similar clinics in Gangnam typically charge ₩30,000–50,000). The VISIA test analyzes 8 key indicators and provides results in just 10 minutes. Dr. Kim Tae-hoon personally reviews the images to make decisions, rather than relying on automated computer assessments—making it more reliable than those dermatology clinics that give quotes based solely on image analysis.

Focus Point 5 | Original Equipment Setup: 50+ Units

Busan Grace Dermatology is equipped with over 50 KFDA-approved devices of top brands such as Thermage FLX, Ulthera Prime, PicoSure, PicoWay, V Beam, FRAX, INMODE, Clarity II, Onda, and ultrasound skin analysis systems — offering comprehensive treatment options that cover everything from the epidermis to the fascia layer, all the way to laser phototherapy. This is far different from smaller clinics that rely on just one Thermage unit, which poses significant risks.

Focus Point 6|Chinese Translation Includes Medical Terminology

The clinic assigns a Chinese-speaking interpreter to accompany patients throughout the process. This interpreter holds a KIIP Level 4 certification (the highest level in Korean) and has completed specialized training in Korean medical terminology, enabling them to translate complex medical terms such as “PDRN salmon microneedling” and “INMODE FORMA”. For messages sent outside regular business hours, replies will be sent the following day via WeChat.

Focus Point 7|No Lunch Break (No break on Saturdays)

Monday/Wednesday/Thursday: 10:00–19:00; Tuesday/Friday: 10:00–20:00; Saturday: 10:00–15:00 (no lunch break on Saturdays); closed on Sundays and South Korea’s national holidays. Saturdays are especially convenient for international clients, as you won’t have to wait indefinitely for a procedure to finish. During weekdays, the lunch break is from 13:00–14:30—just avoid that time if possible.

Focus Point 8|1 Minute from L Tower Exit

It’s a 1-minute walk from Exit 8 at Jungdong Station on Subway Line 2, or a 5-minute walk from Exit 5 at Haeundae Station. Once you exit the elevator on the 10th floor, turn right and you’ll find the registration desk right away. The entire L Tower is leased out exclusively for Dermatology services, with separate entrances for the waiting area and treatment areas to ensure patients aren’t exposed to others after procedures.

Focus Point 9|Negotiate in person for 5–10% off

A deposit of ₩20,000 is required in advance. Negotiation room is available: 5–10% off for the full package (for example, a ₩3,000,000 package can be reduced to ₩2,750,000). The negotiation margin is smaller during peak seasons like summer vacation and on Tuesday/Wednesday evening sessions. An additional 2% discount can be offered if paid in cash or with a South Korean bank card; there is no negotiation space for Alipay or WeChat payments.

X. Summary and Recommendations for Busan Grace Dermatology

More details about the indoor 10th-floor facility at Grace Dermatology

You can see the skyline in the direction of Haeundae outside the window. It’s very comfortable to apply an ice pack here for 30 minutes after completing your treatment.

The price list at Busan Grace Dermatology reveals something that really surprised me — the notion that “Busan = cheap, Gangnam = expensive” holds true even in the field of Dermatology. And it’s not just about being cheaper; it’s a comprehensive discount resulting from three key factors: top-notch equipment, treatment performed personally by the clinic director, and availability of Chinese-speaking interpreters. From the price list to your actual appointment:

  1. If you’re considering treatments that mainly include Thermage FLX, Ultherapy Prime, along with Filler or Botox, the starting price at Grace Dermatology in Busan ranges from ₩3,500,000 to ₩4,500,000. This is about ₩700,000–1,000,000 (NT$16,100–NT$23,000) cheaper compared to clinics of a similar standard in Gangnam. Even after factoring in the cost of one night’s stay at a hotel in Haeundae, it’s still a worthwhile deal.
  2. If your main focus is on “Pico laser treatment plus skin care,” Grace’s prices are only ₩100k–200k higher than those at Gangnam, so the difference isn’t significant. The real advantage here is that you can take in the local scenery on the same day—the Haeundae Beach is just a 5-minute walk away.
  3. If you’re the type who wants to do a VISIA first before making a decision, Grace offers free VISIA services along with a personal review of the images by Director Kim Tae-hoon. You can decide whether to proceed with treatment only after the assessment, which is much more patient-friendly than clinics that require payment first before conducting a VISIA.
  4. If you’re the type who “is in a rush and wants everything done in one go,” it’s recommended to schedule your appointment before 2:00 PM on Tuesday or Friday. You can have 2–3 procedures done back-to-back on the same day (Pico laser treatment + Botox + hyaluronic acid injection), with everything completed within 90 minutes starting at 2:00 PM. The only caveat is that the FLX full-face treatment requires an additional 90 minutes and must be scheduled after the other procedures.

If you’d like me to take things to the next step, I recommend adding me on WeChat at xycheng2204 and sending me your passport number, travel schedule, and the treatments you’re interested in. I can help you connect with a Chinese-speaking customer service representative, confirm with the clinic director, and secure your treatment for that week—this is based on my experience accompanying clients on over 50 medical beauty trips to South Korea, all handled personally without any commission. If you want to compare the prices of Dermatology clinics in different areas of Seoul and Busan, you might also want to check out the price list for Melting Dermatology in Seongsu as of August 2026. That article also outlines price ranges for four main categories, but it’s located in Seongsu-dong, Seoul, making it easier for you to compare different areas and prices.

Grace Dermatology’s unique treatment concept
