Q: What language is used during consultations in Seoul?

Hi everyone, my name is Ayu from Indonesia. I'm seriously considering getting some aesthetic treatments in Seoul next year, but something's been bothering me—language. I speak basic English, but not fluently, and my market research shows that many consultations are in Korean. Are most clinics there able to handle consultations in English, or should I prepare a translator first?

Has anyone had this experience? What usually happens during the first consultation—are they visual-heavy, so language isn't crucial, or do I really need to understand every detail they explain? I'm worried there's been a miscommunication between my expectations and what they can deliver.

Molly, thanks for the insights! Maybe someone from Indonesia can share their experience too 🙏
