Report Overview: Korea Medical Aesthetics Market


The Korean medical aesthetics market size was valued at over USD 0.5 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.2% from 2021 to 2027. The market is majorly driven by the increasing adoption of minimally invasive and non-invasive procedures coupled with growth in medical tourism. Moreover, the high influence of social media and the rise in awareness regarding K-beauty products is aiding in the growth of the market for medical aesthetics.

The trend of combination treatments in aesthetics is also growing. Aesthetics is now being combined with lasers and radiofrequency to get enhanced and sustained results. Aesthetic procedures are popular in Korea as appearance and beauty are institutionalized in the culture of the country.

Korea has witnessed the highest number of cosmetic procedures in the world, hence it is known as the plastic surgery capital of the world. The number of both non-invasive and non-invasive surgeries performed is high in Korea. Initially, Korea was known to have more facial surgeries. However, other procedures such as body contouring, lifting, Botox, and fillers are gaining popularity owing to the easy access to non-invasive surgeries.

Also, the entry barrier for performing these surgeries is low as anyone with a medical license is permitted to perform these surgeries. Korean men are also undergoing an aesthetic procedure such as anti-aging, jaw surgeries, facial contouring, and blepharoplasty.

On the basis of procedure type, the medical aesthetics market is broadly segmented into invasive and noninvasive. The invasive procedures are further segmented into breast augmentation, liposuction, nose reshaping, tummy tuck, eyelid surgery, and others. The non-invasive segment is further segmented into Botox injections, microdermabrasion, soft tissue fillers, laser hair removal, chemical peels, and others.

The non-invasive procedures segment lead the market for medical aesthetics in 2018 and is expected to register the highest CAGR over the forecast period 2021-2027. The rise in the number of men and women wanting to improve their aesthetic appearance has been fueling the demand for non-invasive procedures.
