Want to get lip enhancement along with facial lifting? This article puts together all the pricing details for Wannabe Dermatology’s lip sculpting, thread lifting, Forehead lifting, and Thermage treatments, plus reference ranges for other minor cosmetic procedures such as phototherapy and injections. The goal isn’t to provide you with an “official price list,” but rather to help you understand how to allocate your budget, what questions to ask when getting a quote for the first time to avoid costly mistakes, and which treatment is right for you.
01
Who is Wannabe Dermatology’s Wannabe? Two renowned directors lead the practice in Haeundae
🏥
Wannabe Dermatology (in Korean: 워너비의원) is located along Namdaero in Centum City, Haeundae-gu, Busan. This area is a typical hub where hotels, offices, and restaurants are clustered together, making it very convenient for out-of-town visitors to undergo treatments and head straight back to their hotels afterward. The clinic is run by two chief physicians, both with over a decade of experience in Dermatology. The lead physician, Park Hee-jeong, has previously served as an associate director at well-known clinics such as Barogeu and J-Lynn, and she is also a member of the Korean Association of Aesthetic Plastic and Laser Medicine.
This clinic has been in operation for about a year, with its customer base primarily consisting of regular clients from Busan. It attracts new patients through repeat visits and word-of-mouth recommendations, rather than relying on systematic advertising campaigns. For visitors from outside the area, it functions more like a community-focused specialty clinic that locals quietly frequent. Let’s first clarify the pricing structure, then go over each service in detail.
02
What do you think of this price list? Let’s first clarify where the prices come from.
💡
Let’s start with the most important factor—honesty. Wannabe currently doesn’t release a complete price list through official channels; all information available online is limited to category descriptions. The actual cost will vary depending on factors such as the amount used, brand, complexity of the treatment area, and whether it’s performed by the director himself. Therefore, all figures listed below represent typical reference ranges in South Korea’s medical aesthetics market (in Korean won), intended to help you get an idea of budget expectations—not Wannabe’s current pricing.
💡 Why use “reference range” instead of pretending it’s the official price? Cosmetic procedures’ c
osts are greatly influenced by factors such as the brand (Juvederm, Restylane, BARUNGYN injections, etc.), the number of sessions (e.g., 300/600 sessions for Thermage), and the qualifications of the practitioner. Providing a fixed price can lead to misleading information at best, or even constitute false advertising at worst. Rather than giving you an outdated fake figure, it’s better to show you how to find out the actual cost on your own.

03
Lip Sculpting/Lip Filling: Check here first if you want to fill in your lips
💉
Lip augmentation (lip sculpting) is one of Wannabe’s flagship services, and it’s also where many first-time cosmetic patients start their journey. In the South Korea market, lip fillers are typically administered using 1 centum core of Filler, with prices varying depending on the brand and the skill of the surgeon. Given the dense network of blood vessels and nerves in the lips, achieving the right aesthetic proportion is crucial—hence, choosing the right surgeon is far more important than going for the cheapest option.
The following are the typical reference price ranges for the South Korea cosmetic surgery market (in Korean won), not the current quotes from Wannabe. The actual price will be determined based on the assessment by the clinic on the day of consultation. Please visit BeautsGO or contact Hannah972 on WeChat for more details.
💋 Lip Filling (Lip Sculpting) Reference
💡 When asking for a quote, be sure to c
onfirm the following: “Which brand will be used? How many centum cores? Is numbing included? Will it be performed by the clinic director or a regular doctor?” While lip filler may seem like a minor procedure, the brand and the practitioner significantly affect both the price and the natural appearance.

Frown line lifting: How to choose for a firmer contour
🪄
Filament lifting is ideal for those with sagging contours, drooping corners of the mouth, or a slack middle face. It uses absorbable filaments to lift the tissues upward. The biggest difference in price comes from the “number and type of filaments” used—the amount required for targeted areas (such as the chin line or middle face) can be two to three times higher than that for full-face treatment. This is also why quotes for filament lifting often state “subject to discussion.”

The actual price will be determined based on the assessment by the clinic on the day of consultation. Please visit BeautsGO or contact Hannah972 on WeChat for more details.
🪄 Thread Lifting Guide
Wannabe lists thread lifting as a key treatment, combining it with their emphasis on a comfortable procedure (using anesthetic cream + the concept of sleep anesthesia + pain relief injections during surgery), making it relatively friendly for those who are afraid of pain. But keep in mind: the effects of thread lifting last around 1–1.5 years, after which follow-up treatments or additional devices may be needed to maintain the results.
05
Forehead lifting: A solution to forehead wrinkles and brows pressing down on the eyes
🪄
Forehead lifting treatments are designed to address issues such as a thick forehead, deep frown lines, and brows that cover the eyes. Non-surgical options typically involve thread lifting or a combination of thread lifting with Botox. With a shorter recovery time and less swelling compared to traditional facelifts, it’s another popular procedure offered by Wannabe.

💆 Reference for Forehead Lift
💡 A quick tip for forehead lifting: The forehead a
rea has a dense network of nerves. It’s advisable to ensure that the doctor takes into account the aesthetic balance between the eyebrows and eyes, rather than simply tightening the skin. When asking about the cost of such procedures, don’t forget to inquire whether it will affect your ability to raise your eyebrows.

Thermage: The Entry-Level Device for Anti-Aging and Skin Tightening
💆♀️
Thermage FLX is considered the go-to device for anti-aging and skin tightening. It uses radiofrequency energy to heat the dermal layer and stimulate collagen production, making it ideal for those with sagging skin across the face, collagen loss, or who prefer to avoid surgical procedures. The price depends mainly on the number of pulses—common options include 300 pulses (for targeted areas) and 600 pulses (for the entire face), with higher pulse counts corresponding to higher costs.
The following are the typical reference ranges for the South Korea medical aesthetics market (in Korean won), not Wannabe’s current quotes. The actual price will be determined based on the assessment by the clinic on the day of consultation. Please visit BeautsGO or contact Hannah972 on WeChat for more details.
🔥 Info on Thermage FLX
Wannabe promotes Thermage as the top choice for non-invasive anti-aging treatments, making it an ideal option for those who don’t want surgery or are concerned about the recovery period. There may be mild redness after the procedure, which usually subsides within 1–3 days. Results begin to show gradually over 1–3 months and can last around a year.

Here are some light medical beauty options for you too: price references for phototherapy and injection treatments.
🫧
Beyond these four main options, many people also ask about the trends in “light-based treatments” and “injection therapies.” I’ll list them for you below to help with planning—for example, combining thread lifting with hyaluronic acid injections for hydration, or adding Botox to reduce fine lines, are all common combinations.

When your budget is limited, focus first on treatments that address your most pressing concerns (such as lip sculpting or localized thread lifting), then use the remaining funds for low-cost treatments like hyaluronic acid injections or Botox.

3. Does the quoted
price include numbing cream, post-treatment care, and follow-up visits?
4. Are th

efusing to provide any price range no matter how many times you ask; ② Constantly pushing packages you didn’t ask about; ③ Hesitating to reveal the brand or practitioner. If you encounter any of these, it’s advisable to compare a few more options before making a decision.
