Hi everyone! I'm Nhung, and I'm planning a trip to South Korea to get a non-surgical nose filler. However, I need to fly back home after about a week. I wanted to ask about the typical recovery time/downtime. Has anyone here had it done before?
I'm worried about still having swelling or bruising, which would be uncomfortable for a long flight. I know everyone is different, but I'd like to know how many days it usually takes for people to feel back to normal. Is there a long waiting period before I can wear makeup or resume normal activities?
Thank you in advance! I'm really curious about everyone's experiences. 😊

Reading your post, I'm thinking of doing the same thing 😊 It seems most people say that after about 3-5 days, the swelling and bruising significantly subside, but it varies from person to person. I'm mentally preparing for some discomfort in the first few days, but it should be more manageable afterward. I think you'll have plenty of time before your flight!
Hey Nhung! I'm curious, are you planning to fly right after a week, or do you have any buffer time? I'm also thinking about trying it, but I'm worried about swelling on the plane, hehe. Hope someone can share their experience!
I had a similar situation last time! I found that the first few days were quite sore and swollen, so I recommend scheduling your appointment with at least 5-7 days before your flight to be safe. I used gentle skincare and avoided putting pressure on the area for the first few days, which helped a lot!
