Why We Use the Median, Not the Average
At GlowMap, transparency is our primary objective. When you browse our Greater-Seoul skin-procedure database as of July 2026, you will see a "median price" displayed for each treatment. We choose to report the median rather than the arithmetic mean because the aesthetic medical market in Seoul and Gyeonggi is highly diverse.
In statistics, the median is the middle value in a sorted list of numbers. By using this figure, we prevent extreme outliers—such as ultra-premium boutique clinics or promotional loss-leader pricing—from skewing your perception of what a standard treatment costs. This provides a more accurate reflection of the 'typical' market price you might encounter during your research.
Decoding the Rejuran Price Data
Take the Rejuran procedure as a case study. As of July 2026, our data aggregated from 642 clinics across the Greater-Seoul area shows a median price of 215,000 KRW. However, the price range is significant, spanning from approximately 40,000 KRW to much higher tiers.
This wide variance is intentional and reflects the reality of the market. Factors influencing these price gaps include:
- Experience and Expertise: The skill level of the practitioner performing the injection.
- Clinic Infrastructure: The overhead costs associated with the facility's location and technology.
- Treatment Protocols: Whether the procedure includes additional skin boosters, specialized anesthesia, or post-procedure care.
How to Use GlowMap Data
Our data serves as a reference point for your personal research. It is important to remember that these figures are aggregated public data and do not represent a fixed price. We do not endorse any specific clinic as the "cheapest" or "best," nor do we guarantee outcomes for any procedure.
When you see a median price on GlowMap, view it as a baseline to help you understand the market landscape before you reach out to a clinic. We encourage you to visit individual clinic profiles on GlowMap to see their specific, live price lists, which may fluctuate based on current promotions or seasonal availability.
Data Accuracy and Scope
We continuously monitor public data from 642 clinics for Rejuran, 1,800 for Botox, and hundreds more across other common procedures like Ulthera (median 960,000 KRW) and Pico Toning (median 350,000 KRW). By relying on these large sample sizes, we aim to provide a neutral, data-first view of the Greater-Seoul aesthetic market. Our goal is to empower you with information so you can make decisions that align with your personal needs and budget.
