Hi everyone, I'm Tien from Vietnam. I'm planning to go to South Korea for a nose filler injection, but I'm worried about the recovery time because I only have about 5-7 days there before flying back. Does anyone have experience with this procedure? I want to know how long it takes for the swelling and bruising to go away, and whether I can cover it with makeup without too much pain.
I'm also curious about what precautions I should take when flying immediately after the injection. I've read a few articles, but I'm not sure if they're based on real-life experiences. Is it safe to get the injection a few days before flying? Can anyone help me with these questions?
Thank you everyone!

Hi Tien! I'm also thinking the same thing, I want treatment but I'm really short on time, hehe. From what I've read on the forums, it seems like many people say that a few days before flying is ideal, but it's best to consult a doctor directly to determine your individual condition—everyone seems to respond differently. Good luck and I hope everything goes smoothly!
Oh my god, I totally understand your anxiety! I also rushed to Korea for the procedure and had to fly back immediately – time was really tight! My advice is to ask your doctor for a specific recovery timeline, because everyone's situation is different; some people's swelling goes down quickly, some take longer. Having the procedure a few days before your flight might be risky, so you should consult a professional doctor about the impact of flying on recovery. That way you'll have peace of mind. 😊
