My last trip to Seoul was also after surgery. My advice is to bring some refreshing, moisturizing face masks and a cooling spray, so you can use them on the plane and during your recovery period. It's also best to bring sunscreen, as your skin will be more sensitive after surgery. Korean convenience stores have a huge selection of face masks, but I still prefer to bring some familiar products for peace of mind!

I was just as worried as you when I first went to Korea and planned a skin treatment! You can prepare some basic soothing products from home, but actually, it's very easy to find suitable products at large cosmetics stores in Korea, so don't worry too much. I suggest asking the therapist for detailed instructions after the treatment; they usually know best what you need to take care of in the first few days!

I'm just as worried as you! I'm planning to go to Korea next week and I'm not sure what to prepare for skin recovery after treatment. I'm trying to figure out whether I should bring gentle products from home or buy them there for convenience, but I haven't decided yet. Does anyone in the community have experience with this? 😅

I totally sympathize, May! I was worried like that too when I went to Korea for the first time 😅 Actually, I had to buy things at stores in Korea because I didn't prepare enough, but it was okay because it's so easy to find a wide variety of sheet masks and cooling gels there. I think it's good to prepare a little from home, but don't worry too much. Other people's experiences will probably be helpful in sharing them with us.
