Scars are not one problem, so cost reflects how many of the 3 scar patterns (icepick, boxcar, rolling) your plan must address across a series of sessions.
Acne scar treatment cost in Myeongdong, Seoul depends on your scar type, severity, and how many modalities are layered, such as fractional laser, RF microneedling, and subcision, across multiple sessions. Because atrophic scarring usually needs a course rather than one visit, Dr. Seung Jae Baek confirms your individual cost at consultation instead of quoting a single fixed figure.

Acne scar treatment cost at our Myeongdong (Seoul) location is shaped less by a single price tag and more by what your skin actually needs. Atrophic acne scars come in three main patterns, icepick, boxcar, and rolling, and each responds to a different tool. A plan that must resurface texture, release a tethered rolling scar, and lift a depression naturally costs more than a single-modality session, so the mix of scar types you have is the biggest variable in your overall investment.
The second driver is the number of sessions. Studies of multi-modal protocols report meaningful improvement over roughly 5 to 10 sessions, spaced weeks apart, so most patients budget for a course rather than a one-off. Fractional CO2 or picosecond laser resurfaces, subcision releases tethered rolling scars, RF microneedling remodels the dermis, and a collagen-stimulating booster can lift a depression, and each element you add changes the total.
At Reberry Clinic, acne scar care is consultation-led: Dr. Seung Jae Baek first grades your scar type and severity, then builds a tailored plan and explains the cost transparently in English. International patients are supported at our Myeongdong (Seoul) location, 5, Myeongdong 10-gil, Jung-gu, beside Myeongdong Cathedral and about 5 minutes from Myeongdong Station, so cost can be planned around your travel schedule.
Acne scars respond best when the plan matches the scar’s biology rather than relying on one tool. Icepick scars are narrow and deep and often need focal resurfacing, boxcar scars have sharp edges that respond to fractional laser or RF microneedling, and rolling scars are tethered below the surface and usually need subcision to release the band first. RF microneedling delivers radiofrequency energy through fine needles into the dermis, prompting collagen remodelling, while fractional CO2 laser ablates microscopic columns to resurface texture. Because each modality addresses a different scar pattern, a combined protocol costs more than a single session but is frequently more efficient over a course. Severity also dictates session count and equipment intensity: a few shallow boxcar scars may need a short plan, while widespread mixed scarring usually requires more visits and closer sequencing so the skin is not over-stressed. That is why your final cost is set after assessment, not before.

Dr. Baek classifies your scars across the 3 atrophic patterns (icepick, boxcar, rolling) and grades severity, the single biggest cost factor.
A plan may combine 2 to 4 approaches such as fractional laser, RF microneedling, subcision, and a collagen booster, and more modalities mean a higher total.
Multi-modal scar protocols typically run over 5 to 10 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, so cost is quoted as a course, not a single visit.
Rolling scars usually need 1 or more subcision passes to release them before resurfacing, which layers cost onto the base plan.
After assessment, Dr. Baek gives you a transparent, individualised cost in English rather than a single fixed price for everyone.
See representative outcomes from Reberry Clinic. Results build gradually and vary by individual; your plan is assessed at consultation.
Dr. Baek grades your scar type and severity, then explains which modalities your plan needs and what drives the cost, in English.
Once a plan is agreed, your first session usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes depending on the modalities involved.
Scar plans run as a course over several months, so cost is mapped across the series rather than billed as a single fixed visit.
Texture typically improves gradually over multiple sessions across months, and your doctor reviews progress to adjust the plan and cost.
Scar improvement from a completed course is lasting, but new breakouts can create new scars, so acne control and sun protection are factored into planning.
Acne scar treatment cost in Myeongdong depends on your scar type, severity, and how many modalities your plan layers across a course of sessions. Because scarring is individualised, Dr. Baek confirms your exact cost at consultation rather than quoting one fixed figure. You can start on our acne treatment page.
Atrophic scars come in three patterns, icepick, boxcar, and rolling, so two patients rarely need the same plan. A few shallow boxcar scars cost differently from widespread mixed scarring needing subcision. That is why cost is set after Dr. Baek grades your scars rather than from a one-size-fits-all menu.
The mix and severity of your scars is usually the biggest factor. A limited area of shallow scars may need a short single-modality course, while deep icepick or widespread rolling scars need more sessions and often more modalities. Your scar grade, set at consultation, drives both plan length and what it includes.
Yes, a combined scar protocol generally costs more than a single session because it addresses several scar patterns at once, such as fractional laser, RF microneedling, and subcision. However, it is often more efficient over a course. You can compare related options on our laser treatment page.
Multi-modal scar protocols typically run over about 5 to 10 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, so cost is planned as a course rather than a single visit. The exact number depends on your scar type and how it responds, which Dr. Baek reviews and adjusts between visits.
Often yes, because tethered rolling scars usually need subcision to release the fibrous band before resurfacing, which layers an extra procedure onto the base plan. Icepick and shallow boxcar scars may need only resurfacing. Your doctor sequences release first, then remodelling, so the plan stays effective and the skin is not over-stressed.
RF microneedling is often included because it delivers radiofrequency energy into the dermis through fine needles to remodel scar tissue, and it carries a lower pigment-change risk than ablative laser. Whether it is part of your protocol, and how many sessions, is decided at consultation based on your scar type and skin tone.
Comfort and downtime relate to which modalities you choose rather than being separate charges. Numbing cream is used for procedures like RF microneedling, subcision, and fractional laser. Ablative laser has more downtime than microneedling, so Dr. Baek explains expected recovery for each option before you commit to the plan.
Scar improvement usually builds gradually over several sessions across months as the plan addresses each pattern, not after a single visit. Studies note active dermal remodelling by around 10 weeks post-procedure. Your doctor reviews progress between sessions so the plan, and its cost, stays matched to your response.
Improvement from a completed scar course is lasting because it remodels the skin structurally rather than temporarily. However, new acne breakouts can create new scars, so keeping active acne controlled protects your investment. Occasional touch-up sessions and sun protection are discussed as part of long-term planning at consultation.
Yes, active acne is usually controlled first because treating scars while breakouts continue can create new scars and waste sessions. Your doctor may recommend an acne treatment plan before or alongside scar work. Stabilising acne makes the scar-resurfacing cost more efficient over time.
Most adults with stable, atrophic acne scars whose active acne is under control are suitable for a structured plan. A consultation grades your scars and confirms which modalities fit your skin tone and budget. A history of keloid scarring or very active acne may change the approach, which Dr. Baek explains upfront.
Acne scar treatment is widely performed and generally considered safe when a trained doctor matches modalities and settings to your skin type and scar pattern. A consultation reduces risks like temporary redness or pigment change. You can review the broader approach on our laser treatment page first.
Your skin tone influences which modalities and settings are safest, which affects the plan and its cost. Deeper tones may favour RF microneedling over ablative laser to lower the risk of pigment change, sometimes needing more conservative, staged sessions. Dr. Baek accounts for this so the plan is both safe and appropriately priced.
Daily sunscreen, gentle skincare, and avoiding picking are essential and inexpensive but vital to results and to preventing pigment change. Some patients add supportive products, which is optional. A skin care routine protects your investment between sessions and is discussed transparently as part of planning.
For a first session, 2 to 3 days is comfortable, allowing a consultation, the procedure, and a short review, though ablative laser may need a little extra recovery time. Because scar plans run as a course, many international patients begin in Seoul and continue across return visits. Our English-speaking Myeongdong team helps coordinate timing and cost.
Yes, flying within a day or two is generally fine after RF microneedling or subcision, while ablative fractional laser may warrant a short buffer for redness to settle. Cabin air is drying, so moisturise and protect treated skin from sun. Dr. Baek advises on aftercare based on the modality you had while you travel.
International patients can complete a scar course across one or more visits, and the clinic offers remote check-ins in English between trips so the plan and cost stay on track. You can continue supportive skin care at home. Your treatment notes are kept on file for continuity across sessions.

|---|---|---|---|
| Approach | One tool, e.g. fractional laser only | Several modalities matched to your scar patterns | Rolling-scar release layered with resurfacing |
| Best for | A few shallow boxcar scars | Mixed icepick, boxcar, and rolling scars | Tethered rolling scars with depressions |
| Sessions | Often fewer, shorter course | A planned series over several months | Subcision visits plus added resurfacing |
| Downtime | Usually mild and short | Mild to moderate depending on modalities | Bruising around subcision, then resurfacing recovery |
| Results timeline | Gradual, texture improves over weeks | Builds across the series as scar types are addressed | Release first, then remodelling over months |
| Cost factors | Depends on the single modality and area | Depends on how many modalities and sessions | Highest, since subcision adds procedure steps |
