If you’re looking up prices for Jogak plastic surgery in South Korea, what you really want to know is usually not just “how much does it cost for the Back of head,” but rather:

Price range: South Korean won ₩. The figures above represent the publicly available reference rates based on current information, and do not include anesthesia fees, examination costs, or VAT. The actual price may vary depending on the scope of the procedure, the amount of Bone cement used, the shape of the skull, and the complexity of the repair.
One-sentence price answer from South Korea’s top Jogak plastic surgery clinics
If you just want to quickly know the price:
Back of head: 7.5 million won, Forehead: 6.8 million won, Top of head: 6.5 million won; Back of head + Forehead: 12.8 million won, Back of head + Top of head: 12.2 million won; Follow-up repairs start at 9 million won. CT scans, general anesthesia, pressure helmets, and VAT are additional charges.
This figure is better suited for creating a preliminary budget; don’t use it directly as the final payment amount per client.
How much does Bone cement correction at the Back of head cost?
Current reference price:
₩7,500,000
This is the reference price for the actual surgery of Bone cement correction at the Back of head.
If calculated separately based on the currently listed prices for CT, general anesthesia, and postoperative compression headgear:
- Surgery: ₩7,500,000
- CT: ₩450,000
- General anesthesia: ₩800,000
- Compression Headband: ₩120,000
Known item subtotal: ₩8,870,000
VAT also needs to be taken into account.
The above is merely a simple summary of the currently listed items for budget estimation purposes only, and it does not represent the final quote for each client.
How much does it cost to shape the Forehead with Bone cement?
Current reference price:
₩6,800,000
If calculated using the same criteria as currently listed—CT, general anesthesia, and a pressure headgear—
₩6,800,000 + ₩450,000 + ₩800,000 + ₩120,000
= ₩8,170,000 + VAT
Whether all the above fees are actually incurred shall still be subject to the official quote.
How much more does it cost to elevate the skull with Bone cement?
Current reference price:
₩6,500,000
Based on the current estimates for CT scans, general anesthesia, and a pressure headgear:
₩6,500,000 + ₩450,000 + ₩800,000 + ₩120,000
= ₩7,870,000 + VAT
This is also for budget reference only and does not represent the fixed total price charged by the hospital to each individual.
How much does it cost to treat the Back of head and Forehead together?
Current reference price for combined surgery:
₩12,800,000
If we calculate the two items separately:
₩7,500,000 + ₩6,800,000 = ₩14,300,000
The currently published joint reference price is:
₩12,800,000
The difference between the two:
₩1,500,000
However, this is just a mathematical comparison between price lists.
Just because the combined price is lower doesn’t mean it’s suitable for everyone to have two procedures done at once, and it’s not recommended to expand the scope of surgery just for the sake of saving money.
How much does it cost to treat the Back of head and crown of the head together?
Current reference price for combined surgery:
₩12,200,000
Add the two individual prices together:
₩7,500,000 + ₩6,500,000 = ₩14,000,000
The current combined reference price is:
₩12,200,000
It can also be used for budget comparison, but whether a combined procedure is right for you ultimately cannot be determined solely by price.
How much does a second Revision Surgery cost?
Current reference price:
Starting from ₩9,000,000
Here, special attention should be paid to “starting”.
It doesn’t mean:
The cost for all Revision Surgeries is uniformly 9 million Korean won.
Rather, it represents the reference starting price currently available.
The repair cost can be affected by:
- What surgeries have you had done before?
- Current head shape issues
- Degree of unevenness or asymmetry
- Area that needs repair
- Complexity of the surgery
affected by factors such as these.
So if you’re undergoing a second revision procedure, you can’t simply apply the price of the first surgery.

Why can’t second repairs usually be priced directly based on the cost of the first surgery?
The first surgery is different from a Revision Surgery.
If a head shape surgery has already been performed, the doctor needs to first understand:
What was done originally → What problems remain now → Which areas need treatment → How extensive is the repair needed
That’s why the current data is presented as:
Starting from ₩9,000,000
This serves as a reference price for Revision Surgery.
If it’s a repair case, it’s best to clearly state that when asking for a quote:
“I had a head shape surgery before and would like to consult about a second revision.”
Don’t just ask:
“How much does surgery on the Back of head cost?”
How much more do I need to prepare for CT scans, anesthesia, and post-operative supplies?
The additional fees listed in the current information are:
Preoperative cranial CT
₩450,000
general anesthesia
₩800,000
Special post-surgery compression headband
₩120,000
Also:
VAT surcharge
The current surgical prices do not include VAT.
So when checking prices, don’t just focus on the cost of the procedure itself.
For example:
Back of head: 7.5 million KRW
When actually estimating the budget, you also need to take into account the applicable CT costs, anesthesia fees, post-operative supplies, and VAT.
“Extra fees” and “hidden charges” are not the same thing.
What people fear most in the title is “being suddenly charged more halfway through the surgery.”
But based on the price information currently available, it’s clearly stated:
CT ₩450,000
General anesthesia: ₩800,000
Compression Headband ₩120,000
And:
VAT is charged separately.
These are all costs that can be known in advance and cannot be simply called “hidden fees.”
What really matters to keep in mind is:
What exactly is included in the price shown at first glance?
So rather than just asking:
“How much is it for the Back of head?”
Why not just ask:
“What costs are included in this price? Are the CT scan, anesthesia, and VAT charged separately?”
This makes it easier to get complete pricing information.
Worried about inconsistent quotes? Ask these 5 questions right away
If you’re ready to request a formal quote, you can simply copy this:
“What’s the current approximate price for surgery on the Back of head?”
“Does this price include a pre-operative CT scan?”
“Is general anesthesia charged separately?”
“Is VAT calculated separately?”
“If it’s a second repair, what factors determine the price adjustment?”
One last thing to add:
“Besides the costs mentioned above, what other fees might arise?”
This makes it easier to clarify the pricing structure than simply asking if there are hidden fees.
How should one compare the prices of combined surgeries?
You can start by looking at these two sets of numbers.
Back of head + Forehead
Add individual items:
₩14,300,000
Combined Reference Price:
₩12,800,000
Back of head + crown of head
Add individual items:
₩14,000,000
Combined reference price:
₩12,200,000
According to the price list, the reference price for combined surgery is lower than the sum of the two procedures done separately.
But this only means:
There are price differences among the listed options.
Does not mean:
To save money, you should get both treatments done at the same time.
Should a combined procedure be considered, or should you first assess your own head shape needs?

When it comes to the cost of head shape surgery in South Korea, what really matters is the “pricing range”.
If you’re comparing different hospitals in South Korea, it’s not advisable to base your decision solely on the lowest price shown in search results.
It’s best to compare the following items together:
| Comparison Items | What needs to be confirmed |
|---|---|
| The surgery itself | Single treatment or combo treatment? |
| CT scan | Is there an additional charge? |
| Anesthesia | Included or not |
| VAT | Tax included? |
| Repair | Is it the “starting” price? |
| Materials | Will it change depending on usage volume |
| Scope of the procedure | Does it affect the final price? |
| Post-surgery supplies | Is it calculated separately? |
Only when the price ranges are ILCHI can we truly say we’re comparing prices.
Why might the price online differ from the actual quote you receive?
The information provided currently already states that prices may be affected by:
Surgical scope, amount of Bone cement used, head shape, and complexity of the repair
affected by factors such as these.
Additionally, the promotional prices may differ from the regular reference prices.
Therefore, this article is better suited for:
① Understand the price range
② Estimated budget for visiting Korea
③ Compare different surgical options
Until a formal decision is made, the fees confirmed for that period should still apply.
If your budget only covers the cost of the surgery itself, is that enough?
For example, if you see:
Back of head: ₩7,500,000
Don’t treat 7.5 million as a complete budget for both the trip and the surgery.
At least for now, it may still involve:
CT + anesthesia + postoperative supplies + VAT
And that’s not even including:
Costs for traveling to Korea, including flight tickets, accommodation, and transportation.
So if you’re an international guest, it’s best to include the following when actually planning your budget:
Medical expenses + Overseas travel costs
Calculate separately.
After seeing the prices for 2026, how much should I actually prepare?
You can quickly understand it this way:
Want to get treatment on the Back of head
Surgery fee: ₩7,500,000
The other listed options such as CT, anesthesia, and pressure headgear are currently known to be:
₩1,370,000
Known subtotal for the item:
₩8,870,000 + VAT
Want to enhance my Forehead
Surgery fee: ₩6,800,000
Other known projects:
₩1,370,000
Known subtotal for items:
₩8,170,000 + VAT
Want to enhance my crown area
Surgery fee: ₩6,500,000
Other known projects:
₩1,370,000
Known subtotal for items:
₩7,870,000 + VAT
Wanting a second repair
Starting from ₩9,000,000
Don’t simply apply the fixed totals above, as repair results vary from case to case.
All of the above are budget estimates based on currently available information and do not represent the final quote.

Current surgical pricing:
No VAT included.
❓ Is the price shown online the final price?
Not necessarily.
The current prices are for general reference only; the actual cost may be affected by:
Scope of surgery, amount of Bone cement used, head shape, and complexity of reconstruction
Impact, and in addition, CT scans, anesthesia, postoperative supplies, and VAT also need to be taken into consideration.
❓ Why is Revision Surgery more expensive?
Current data shows that the cost of Revision Surgery starts at **₩9,000,000**.
Since the second revision requires assessment based on the previous surgical history, current structural issues, and the complexity of the repair, it cannot be simply priced according to the cost of the first surgery.
❓ Is a combined procedure always more cost-effective?
Based on the currently available prices, the reference cost for some combined procedures is lower than the sum of the two individual prices.
But a low price doesn’t necessarily mean it’s suitable for combined surgeries. Whether multiple areas need to be treated at the same time should still be determined based on your own head shape requirements.
❓ How to avoid being charged extra?
The simplest way isn’t just to ask “are there any hidden fees?” — instead, focus on:
Surgery itself + CT + anesthesia + VAT + post-op supplies + possible additional fees for individual cases
Ask clearly about each item.

🧠 Final tip: A truly useful price list isn’t one that just tells you “how much it costs.”
If you only need to remember one number:
Back of head: 7.5 million KRW
Actually, it’s not enough yet.
What really needs to be remembered is:
How much is the surgery itself?
↓
Are CT scans, anesthesia, and post-operative supplies charged separately?
↓
Is VAT included?
↓
Will the scope of my surgery affect the price?
↓
If it’s for repair, why is the price starting at 9 million?
↓
Finally, make sure all the cost details are clear.
This way, when you use this price list to compare other hospitals in South Korea, you won’t end up stuck wondering, “One hospital seems to charge 7 million, while another charges 8 million—which one is actually more expensive?” only to discover that the services included in each are completely different.
When considering surgery abroad, what truly matters for comparison isn’t just the lowest price shown on search results — it’s “what exactly is included in the same type of procedure, what additional costs are there, and how much does the final budget differ?” All content on this site adheres to the principle of helping you avoid common pitfalls in medical aesthetics.
