Hey everyone! So I'm planning to fly to Korea next month to get a small aesthetic procedure done, and I'm trying to figure out what to bring from home versus what I can grab there. I've read that swelling is pretty normal after these kinds of treatments, and I'm honestly a bit nervous about managing it while traveling.

Does anyone have tips on what products or items helped with swelling reduction? Like, should I bring my own pain relievers and antihistamines, or is it easier to just buy them there? I'm also wondering if there are any gentle skincare products I should have on hand—I don't want to mess anything up during recovery. I'm not sure how long I should plan to stay low-key after the procedure either, so any real-talk experiences would help!

Also, if you've traveled for something like this, how did you manage the flight back home? I'm a bit worried about the plane ride and what that might do to swelling. Any advice would be really appreciated!
