Hi everyone, I'm Lu. I'm considering getting a non-surgical nose filler in Korea, but I'm a bit concerned about the recovery time. I plan to stay for about a week and then need to fly back home.
I'd like to ask those of you with experience: how long does it usually take for swelling to subside after this type of non-surgical nose filler? I've heard there might be some swelling and bruising, but I'm really unsure about how long it takes for them to mostly disappear so I can confidently get on a plane home.
Also, will flying itself have any impact on a freshly done filler? Has anyone had a similar experience they can share? I'd like to understand the practicalities so I can plan my time accordingly. Thanks, everyone!

I had a rhinoplasty procedure done the last time I was in Korea, and I flew back within a week. I felt the swelling was quite noticeable for the first two to three days, but by the fifth or sixth day, it had mostly subsided. I could barely tell I'd had anything done before my flight. However, everyone's recovery is different, so I recommend consulting with a doctor for a specific recovery timeline. That way, you'll have a clearer idea of what to expect!
I'm really interested in this! Did you go out and explore after your treatment, or did you just stay at the hotel the whole time? I'm worried about being able to visit different places, but I might be too tired or it could affect swelling.
