InMode Cost in Korea: What One Area, Full Face and a Trial Session Really Cost

I'm Dr. Hyunji Kim, director and lead physician at Delphic Clinic in Gangnam, one minute from Sinnonhyeon Station. I trained at Korea University Medical Center and I am a member of the Korean Academy of Aesthetic Surgery & Laser Medicine and the Korean Society for Obesity & Aesthetic Treatment. Most of my week is lifting, laser and contouring work, and a large share of my patients fly in from the US, Singapore and Australia.

The InMode cost in Korea is one of the first things international patients ask me about, usually in a WhatsApp message before they have even booked a flight. The question is fair, but the answer depends on two things the price list does not show: how many areas you actually need, and whether your face needs firming or fat reduction. This page gives you our real menu and the way I decide.

The real InMode price list, line by line

These are the exact prices on our menu. I show them first because most clinic pages bury the number under three screens of marketing, and you should not have to message anyone to find out what something costs.

The trial price is for your first visit to our clinic. It is the same treatment and the same device, not a lighter version. After that, the regular one-area and full-face prices apply.

Why an InMode price in Seoul is not comparable to one at home

Patients often send me a screenshot of a price from their home city and ask why ours is a fraction of it. The device is the same family. What differs is how clinics bundle it. Many clinics abroad only sell InMode as a package of three to six sessions, so the single number you see is really a course price.

If you are comparing InMode against other contouring devices, I explained how the microneedling version works in my note on Morpheus8 in Korea, which is a different treatment with more downtime.

FX or Forma: the choice that decides your bill

InMode has two handpieces that matter for most faces. Forma warms the deeper skin to encourage firmness. FX delivers high-voltage pulses meant to reduce small, soft pockets of fat. They answer different complaints, and choosing the wrong one is the most common way people spend money on InMode and feel nothing changed.

When I choose Forma

Your skin looks a little tired and loose, your jawline is still clear, and there is no real fat to reduce. Forma alone on the full face is usually enough.

When I choose FX

There is a soft fullness under the chin or along the lower jaw that has not responded to weight loss. One area of FX there often does more than a full face of Forma.

When I choose neither

If the fat is heavier than FX can reasonably reduce, a targeted injection often suits better. I compared the options in my guide to facial fat dissolving in Korea.

The cheapest InMode is the one aimed at the right problem. The most expensive is a full face of the wrong handpiece.— Dr. Hyunji Kim, Delphic Clinic

A quick self-check before you book

Answer these honestly in front of a mirror. They will tell you roughly which line of the menu you are looking at before you talk to anyone.

• Pinch under your chin while looking down. Soft tissue you can hold usually points to FX on one area.
• Gently lift your cheeks toward your ears. If the jawline sharpens a lot, firming (Forma or a stronger lift) is the goal.
• Look at deep folds by the mouth. InMode will soften the look slightly but will not erase deep folds.
• Count your days in Seoul. With one visit, plan one meaningful session, not the first step of a course.

Who should not spend money on InMode

I say no to InMode more often than people expect. It is a gentle treatment, and gentle treatments disappoint when the expectation is dramatic.

• Clear sagging along the jaw and neck: a deeper lifting device will do more for the same trip.
• Pregnancy, a pacemaker or metal implants in the treatment area: RF treatment is not appropriate.
• Active skin infection or a very recent filler in the same area: we wait.
• Anyone expecting a surgical result from one session.

For heavy jawline fat, reviews of fat dissolving injections are worth reading honestly before you choose, including the side effects people understate.

Fitting InMode into a short Seoul trip

1. 1

   Message before you fly

   Send a front and side photo. I can tell you in advance whether FX, Forma or something else is likely, so you can budget.

2. 2

   Consultation and treatment the same day

   Same-day treatment is usually possible after the free consultation. The session itself takes about 20 to 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Plan photos for two days later

   Mild redness settles within hours and tenderness within two to three days, so avoid booking important photos for the next morning.

If a soft double chin is your main concern, I also wrote a week-by-week look at fat dissolving injections before and after, so you know what the first days really look like.

If you have a price from home and want to know whether ours is really the same thing, bring it. In a free one-to-one consultation I will look at your face, tell you which handpiece and how many areas make sense, and if InMode is not worth it for you, I will say so. English and Chinese interpreters are on site, you pay the same price as a Korean patient, and we are one minute from Exit 3 of Sinnonhyeon Station.
