Leading treatments
Prostate (BPH) treatment
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate that can narrow the urethra and slow the flow of urine. Seomyeon L Urology offers two procedures done through the urethra: UroLift (prostatic urethral lift), which holds the enlarged tissue apart with small implants, and Aquablation, a waterjet resection guided by the AquaBeam robotic system. The Korean fee notice lists UroLift at ₩5,000,000–₩10,000,000 and Aquablation at ₩8,000,000–₩14,000,000, VAT not stated, and says materials and costs may be added after the examination. It also lists the UroLift implant at ₩1,500,000 and the AquaBeam handpiece at ₩6,000,000 without saying whether they are included in the ranges. The clinic says UroLift is done under local anesthesia or light sedation, that patients go home the same day and that normal daily activity is possible from the next day. The clinic's own pages disagree on how long Aquablation takes and whether it needs a hospital stay, so ask before you book. Rezum water vapor therapy costs ₩8,000,000–₩11,000,000 on the same notice.
Erectile dysfunction treatment
Erectile dysfunction (ED) treatment at Seomyeon L Urology ranges from prescription tablets and Trimix injections to penile implants; the clinic also offers shockwave therapy for ED, with no published price. On the fee notice, an ED medication prescription costs ₩14,000; the notice does not say whether the medicine is included. A Trimix injection prescription costs ₩30,000 per dose and an in-clinic Trimix injection test ₩250,000. A malleable penile implant costs ₩5,000,000, or ₩8,000,000 with a Coloplast Genesis implant, and an inflatable three-piece implant ₩15,000,000. VAT is not stated.
Premature ejaculation treatment
Premature ejaculation (PE) treatment at the clinic includes prescription medication and procedures that block selected sensory nerves of the penis. On the fee notice, a PE medication prescription costs ₩14,000, a dorsal nerve block ₩700,000, a frenulum nerve block ₩1,000,000 and glans dissection ₩1,200,000, VAT not stated. The clinic also offers PE surgery with a dermal graft, with no separate published price.
Penis enlargement
Penis enlargement (penile enlargement) at Seomyeon L Urology covers girth enlargement with injected filler, the patient's own fat or a dermal graft, and glans enlargement. The clinic says it uses local anesthesia or sedation, depending on the method. On the fee notice, girth enlargement costs ₩2,000,000 with HA filler or ₩3,000,000 with human-derived filler, both per 10 cc; ₩2,500,000 with an autologous fat graft; and ₩3,000,000 (xenogeneic dermis) or ₩5,000,000 (allogeneic dermis) with a dermal graft. A second enlargement line, ₩1,000,000 with HA filler and ₩1,500,000 with human-derived filler, is labelled glans enlargement on the clinic's English website; the Korean notice does not say so and gives no volume, so ask. VAT is not stated.
Circumcision
Adult circumcision removes the foreskin. Seomyeon L Urology says it uses only a laser technique and offers two designs: a sleeve design at ₩500,000 and what the clinic calls a special technique (마는특수 포경) at ₩1,000,000, on the fee notice, VAT not stated. The clinic says circumcision is done under local anesthesia and takes up to 20 minutes, that stitches come out after about one week and that normal activity is possible from the next day.
Vasectomy
A vasectomy cuts and seals the vas deferens, the tubes that carry sperm, as a method of male contraception. Seomyeon L Urology offers no-scalpel vasectomy at ₩500,000 on the fee notice, VAT not stated. The clinic says it is done under local anesthesia through an opening of about 2–3 mm, takes about 10 minutes, and that a semen test later checks that no sperm remain.
