Acne scars come in 3 main shapes (icepick, boxcar, rolling), so cost reflects how many scar types your plan must resurface across a series of sessions.
Acne scar treatment cost in Gangnam, Seoul depends on your scar type, depth, and severity, plus how many modalities are combined, such as fractional laser, RF microneedling, and subcision. Because atrophic scars respond over a series of sessions, the clinic’s doctors confirm your individual cost at consultation rather than quoting one fixed figure.

Acne scar treatment cost in Gangnam is shaped less by a single price tag and more by what your skin actually needs to resurface. Atrophic acne scars fall into 3 main shapes: narrow icepick scars, sharp-edged boxcar scars, and shallow, wavy rolling scars. Each shape responds best to a slightly different tool, so a face carrying several scar types naturally costs more than one with a single, uniform scar pattern.
The second driver is the number of sessions. Collagen remodelling is gradual, so atrophic scars typically improve over a course of visits spaced weeks apart, not in one appointment. Most patients budget for a series rather than a one-off. Add-ons such as fractional laser passes, RF microneedling, subcision to release tethered rolling scars, and supportive medical skincare each change the total.
At Reberry Clinic, scar care is consultation-led: the clinic’s doctors first grade your scar type and severity, then build a tailored plan and explain the cost transparently in English. International patients are welcome at our Gangnam (Seoul) location on Gangnam-daero, about 2 minutes from Gangnam Station exit 10, where Dr. Yoongon Ryu leads care and cost can be planned around your travel schedule.
Acne scars respond best when the plan matches each scar’s geometry rather than relying on one tool. Deep, narrow icepick scars often need focal, high-energy passes; sharp boxcar edges respond to fractional resurfacing; and tethered rolling scars usually call for subcision, in which a fine needle or cannula releases the fibrous bands pulling the scar down. RF microneedling delivers radiofrequency energy through fine needles into the dermis to trigger collagen remodelling, while fractional CO2 laser resurfaces the surface. Because each modality addresses a different part of the scar, a combined protocol costs more than a single session but is frequently more efficient over 3 to 4 visits. Severity also dictates energy intensity and session frequency: a few shallow scars may need a short course, while widespread, deep scarring usually requires more sessions and closer medical monitoring, both of which raise the total. The clinic’s doctors sequence treatments so the skin is not over-stressed, which is why your final cost is set after assessment, not before.

Doctors classify your scars across the 3 atrophic shapes (icepick, boxcar, rolling) and grade severity, which is the single biggest cost factor.
A plan may combine 2 to 3 approaches such as fractional laser, RF microneedling, and subcision, and more modalities mean a higher total.
Atrophic scars remodel over a course of 3 to 6 sessions spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart, so cost is usually quoted as a course, not a single visit.
If rolling scars are bound down by fibrous bands, 1 or more subcision sessions are layered in to release them, which adds to the overall cost.
After assessment, the clinic’s doctors give you a transparent, individualised cost in English rather than a single fixed price for everyone.

At our Gangnam location, the clinic’s doctors grade your scar type and severity, then explain 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 and area involved.
Scar plans run as a course, so cost is mapped across the series rather than billed as a single fixed visit.
Scars remodel over several sessions across months, and your doctor reviews progress to adjust the plan and cost as needed.
Once remodelled, results are lasting, though occasional maintenance and diligent sun protection help, which is factored into long-term planning.
Acne scar treatment cost in Gangnam depends on your scar type, depth, and how many modalities your plan combines across a series of sessions. Because plans are individualised, the clinic’s doctors confirm your exact cost at consultation. You can start on our acne treatment page.
Our Gangnam (Seoul) location sits on Gangnam-daero, about 2 minutes from Gangnam Station exit 10, where Dr. Yoongon Ryu leads care. The English-speaking team grades your scars and builds a resurfacing plan on-site, so international patients can consult and begin treatment in one visit to Gangnam, Seoul, Korea.
Acne scars vary in shape and depth, from narrow icepick to wavy rolling scars, so two patients rarely need the same plan. A few shallow scars cost differently from widespread deep scarring. That is why cost is set after a doctor grades your scars rather than from a one-size-fits-all menu.
Severity and scar variety are usually the biggest factors in your cost. A face with one scar type may need a short single-modality course, while mixed icepick, boxcar, and rolling scars need more sessions and often more modalities. Your scar grade, set at consultation, drives both the plan length and what it includes.
Yes, a combined scar protocol generally costs more than a single session because it addresses several scar types at once, such as fractional laser, RF microneedling, and subcision. However, it is often more efficient over the series. You can compare related options on our laser treatment page.
Atrophic scars typically remodel over 3 to 6 sessions spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart, rather than in a single visit, so cost is usually planned as a course. The exact number depends on your scar grade and how the dermis responds, which your doctor reviews and adjusts between visits.
Comfort and downtime relate to which modalities you choose rather than being separate charges. Numbing cream is used for laser, RF microneedling, and subcision, and downtime ranges from a day to about a week. Your doctor explains expected recovery for each modality before you commit to the plan.
Subcision is usually added to a laser or RF microneedling plan rather than used alone, so it adds to, rather than replaces, the total. It is reserved for tethered rolling scars bound down by fibrous bands. Whether subcision is part of your protocol is decided at consultation based on your scar type.
Visible improvement usually builds over several sessions across months as collagen remodels, not after a single visit. Texture often softens first, while deep scars fill more gradually. Your doctor reviews progress between sessions so the plan, and its cost, stays matched to how your skin responds.
Once scars are remodelled, the improvement is lasting because new collagen is built into the dermis, though results are softened rather than fully erased. Diligent daily sun protection and occasional maintenance, such as a Rejuran Healer course, help preserve the outcome and are factored into long-term planning.
Your skin tone can influence which modalities and settings are safest, which in turn affects the plan and its cost. Deeper tones may favour RF microneedling over ablative laser to reduce pigment change risk. Your doctor accounts for this at consultation so the plan is both safe and appropriately structured.
Yes, active acne is usually stabilised before scar resurfacing so new breakouts do not create fresh scars. Some plans treat active acne and early scarring together, but deep resurfacing works best on settled skin. You can review the broader approach on our acne treatment page first.
Scar resurfacing is widely performed and generally considered safe when a trained doctor matches modality and energy settings to your skin tone and scar type. A consultation reduces risks like temporary redness or pigment change. Your Gangnam doctor tailors settings and aftercare to keep the process controlled and comfortable.
Daily sunscreen, gentle non-comedogenic skincare, and avoiding picking are essential and inexpensive but vital to results. Some patients add supportive products, which is optional. A tailored skin care routine protects your investment between sessions and is discussed transparently as part of planning.
For a first session, 3 to 5 days is comfortable, allowing a consultation, the procedure, and time for initial redness or flaking to settle. Because scar plans run as a course, many international patients begin in Gangnam and continue across return visits. Our English-speaking team coordinates timing and cost around your travel.
Flying within a day or two is generally fine after RF microneedling or subcision, though fractional laser may leave a few days of flaking best passed before travel. Cabin air is drying, so moisturise and protect treated skin from sun. Your Gangnam doctor advises on aftercare 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 also continue supportive skin care at home. Your treatment notes are kept on file for continuity.
