“How much money do I need to bring when going to South Korea for a phoenix wave treatment?” This is probably the most common question asked by every Taiwanese girl who wants to undergo cosmetic procedures in South Korea.
To be honest, checking prices online is really frustrating—some clinics say “come in for a consultation,” while others quote either high or low prices, making it impossible to tell which one is accurate. What’s even worse is getting overcharged once you’re there; with language barriers, you’re too scared to ask questions.
So in this article, I’m going to lay out in full the price list of Sinsa DICARAT Dermatology for you. From radio frequency treatments to Filler, Botox, thread lifting, and hyaluronic acid injections—every service and every price is disclosed right here, including options for different treatment volumes, brands, and dosages. This way, you can have a clear idea before you go, so you won’t run into the problem of running out of budget or not knowing which option to choose once you get there.
All prices are based on the latest in-person consultations as of 2026. The exchange rate is calculated at 10,000 South Korean won ≈ NT$225, with the actual price subject to the clinic’s daily quote. A complete budget estimate and tiered package recommendations are included, so you can instantly know how much money to bring.
Sinsa DICARAT Dermatology – Phoenix Radio Wave Thermage FLX: Fully Transparent Pricing at DICARAT
🪄
Thermage FLX is one of DICARAT’s most popular treatments, and it’s precisely why many Taiwanese women fly all the way to South Korea for this procedure—in Taiwan, one session with 600 shots costs around NT$80,000–120,000, while at DICARAT the price is only 60–70% of that, offering a significant savings.
Below is a detailed breakdown of the full pricing for DICARAT Phoenix Radio treatment, available in two options: standard doctor-assisted procedure and procedure performed by a chief physician. The latter option comes at a higher cost, but it’s carried out personally by one of the three chief physicians—Jeong Jae-eun, Jeong Ji-hui, or Lim Dong-wook. For those undergoing the treatment for the first time or who are particularly concerned about the results, spending a bit more to ensure peace of mind is definitely worth it.
Thermage FLX Phoenix Radio Frequency Price Breakdown
💰
In short: if you want a comprehensive lift for your face and neck, 600 shots (₩2.19 million ≈ NT$49,275) is the most popular choice. In Taiwan, the same number of shots starts at at least NT$80,000, meaning you save around NT$30,000. If you’re only concerned about the area around your eyes, 225 shots (₩1.15 million ≈ NT$25,875) will suffice—equivalent to saving the cost of a flight ticket.

In addition to the Phoenix radio wave device, DICARAT also offers a full range of ultrasound/radio wave lifting instruments. There’s more than just one option—each instrument is designed to address specific concerns, and the clinic director will recommend the best choice based on your skin condition and budget. Below are the prices of all available options, so you can compare them easily.

💰
If you only have one day and want to get a lift procedure with no recovery period, the Shurink Universe Korean version with 800 shock waves (₩289,000≈NT$6,503) is the top choice. You can go shopping or dining right after the treatment—there’s no swelling, and no need for a recovery time. If you’re willing to spend a bit more, Sofwave or Ultherapy PRIME offer stronger and longer-lasting results, but at a significantly higher price.

Botulinum Toxin: Slimming Face, Wrinkle Reduction, Sweat Control – Full Price List
💉
Botox is likely one of the treatments in South Korea where you can truly feel the difference in price. In Taiwan, getting a treatment for the masseter muscles (to slim down the face) costs at least NT$6,000–10,000, while at DICARAT, it only costs ₩49,000 (about NT$1,103) — that’s just one-tenth to one-fifth of the price in Taiwan. The price difference is absolutely staggering.
Botox for a Slimmer Face (Masticatory Muscles)
💰
There are numerous brands of Botox for slimming facial contours, with significant differences in price. Beginners or those on a tight budget can start with South Korea-made brands, as they yield similar results that are totally OKAY. Those who demand higher quality can opt for imported brands.
Wrinkle Botox & Local Botox
💉
A little tip: If it’s your first time getting Botox injections, you might consider starting with Botulax or Coretox, which are made in South Korea. They offer similar results at just half the price of imported brands. I really appreciate that the director at DICARAT doesn’t push expensive brands on clients.

Filler treatments: Tear trough correction, Nasolabial Fold Correction, chin, Apple Zone
💎
DICARAT offers two types of Filler brands: imported ones such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Belotero, as well as South Korea-made products like The Chaeum Premium. Imported brands start at 390,000 Korean won per centum core (approximately NT$8,775 per 1cc), while the South Korea-made version costs only 190,000 Korean won (around NT$4,275 per 1cc), which is almost half the price of the imported versions.
The choice of Filler varies depending on the application area. For delicate areas like Tear trough correction, it’s recommended to use imported brands, as their molecules are finer and less likely to cause a granular texture. For areas that require more structural support such as the chin and nose, South Korea-made Fillers also perform excellently.
Among the Taiwanese clients I’ve spoken with, the most popular choice is using Filler made in South Korea for Nasolabial Fold Correction and chin augmentation. The total amount used is less than 2 centum core, costing around ₩380,000 (approximately NT$8,550). In Taiwan, the cost is usually between NT$25,000 and NT$30,000, so the price difference is quite noticeable. For delicate areas like Tear trough correction, I recommend using imported brands or those specified by the specialist—although it’s more expensive, the results are more natural with less risk of visible boundaries.

Filament lifting: MINT Power Thread, Bell Thread, Rhinoplasty Filament Therapy
🪄
If your sagging has gone beyond what radiofrequency or ultrasound treatments can address, thread lifting is the most effective solution. DICARAT offers two popular options: the MINT lifting threads (manufactured in South Korea) and Silhouette Soft bell-shaped threads (imported from France). The former stands out for its great value for money, while the latter is renowned for its durability and natural appearance.
For those trying thread lifting for the first time, MINT 12 threads is the most popular choice among beginners (₩1.05 million ≈ NT$23,625). It delivers noticeable results without being too intense. The bell-shaped threads are ideal for those with a higher budget who seek the most natural and long-lasting outcomes—these threads feature small cone shapes resembling bells, providing more consistent lifting effect.
Complete Price Guide for Hyaluronic Acid Injection, Rejuran, and Potenza
🫧
If you’re not looking for lifting or filler treatments, but simply want to improve your skin texture, hydrate it, and shrink your Pores—prices for these services are much more affordable here, and they’re also the most common treatments that Taiwanese women opt for as part of their regular skincare routine.
If your budget falls between ₩200,000 and ₩500,000 (approximately NT$4,500–11,250), a 4-centum core Rejuran treatment for the entire face (₩470,000) or a Potenza treatment combined with Juvelook (₩490,000) represents the best “quality investment” – it gives the skin an inner glow that makeup simply cannot achieve.

Other popular treatments: fat-dissolving injections, hair removal, whitening serums, body contouring
✨
In addition to facial treatments, DICARAT also offers various body management and daily care services, with equally transparent pricing. If you’ve finished your facial treatment and still have some time and budget left, you might consider adding these services:

Frequently Asked Questions FAQ
Q: How much does DICARAT’s Phoenix Radio 600 cost in Taiwanese dollars?
A: The cost for a regular doctor’s procedure is ₩2,190,000 (approximately NT$49,275), while it’s ₩2,490,000 (about NT$56,025) when performed by the clinic director. In Taiwan, a similar-level Phoenix Radio 600 treatment costs around NT$80,000–120,000, with DICARAT being roughly NT$30,000–70,000 more expensive.
Q: With so many Botox brands available, how do I choose?
A: For your first injection, it’s recommended to start with brands made in South Korea (Botulax at ₩70,000 or Coretox at ₩85,000), as they offer similar results. If you’ve already used imported brands and are satisfied with the outcomes, you can continue with BOTOX (₩175,000) or Xeomin (₩135,000) to avoid inconsistencies due to changing brands. The clinic director will give you advice during the consultation, or you can simply mention your budget.
Q: Should I choose Filler made in South Korea or imported ones?
A:For delicate areas such as Tear trough correction and the eye contour, it’s recommended to choose imported brands (₩390,000 per 1cc), as their molecules are finer and result in less noticeable boundaries. For areas that require more structural support like Nasolabial Fold Correction, the chin, and Apple Zone, South Korea-made products (₩190,000 per 1cc) are also an excellent choice, offering much better value for money. If you’re not sure, just ask the clinic director—they’ll recommend the best option based on your specific condition without pushing expensive treatments unnecessarily.
Q: Can multiple procedures be done on the same day?
A: Sure. It’s quite common to combine Radiofrequency Therapy from Phoenix, Botox, and Filler in the same day. The clinic director will help you arrange the procedures during the consultation to ensure safety and optimal results. It’s generally recommended to do the device-based treatments (radiofrequency/ultrasound) first, followed by the injection treatments (Botox/Filler). The entire process takes about 2–3 hours.
Q: How much cash should I bring to DICARAT? Can I pay by card?
A: DICARAT accepts credit cards (Visa/Mastercard/JCB) as well as cash. It’s recommended to use credit cards for better exchange rates, with an additional ₩100,000–200,000 in cash on hand as a backup. For budgeting purposes, consider the three package options listed above: Basic at ₩400,000, Advanced at ₩1,500,000, and Premium at ₩3,500,000, plus another ₩100,000–200,000 for unexpected expenses.
