Hi everyone, I'm Shihhan from Taiwan. I've been considering a treatment in Korea recently, but honestly, I'm a bit anxious about the cost. Besides the treatment itself, there's the airfare, accommodation, and food, which seems like a lot. I'd like to ask how many days of vacation I should typically allow? Is it okay to fly back on the same day as the treatment, or is it safer to stay a few days?
I know everyone's situation is different, and the type of treatment will affect the cost and recovery time. I'm a bit unsure how to effectively plan my budget and what to do if something goes wrong. Can anyone share how they arrange their trips? For example, how they coordinate the initial consultation, treatment dates, and follow-up appointments? Also, how do you all assess the overall expenses?
Any sharing is welcome, especially practical experiences or advice. Thank you!

Oh, you're planning a trip to Korea? That's great! I was wondering if you've contacted the clinic in advance to schedule your initial check-up and maintenance appointments for your next visit? Because I'm not sure if I can afford the waiting time.
When I went last time, I was also worried about the budget. So I started saving money three months in advance and scheduled my initial appointment, surgery, and follow-up appointment all in one trip. This saved on airfare and accommodation. I stayed five days and four nights, which I thought was just right, but it really depends on what procedures you're doing! I suggest asking your doctor when the follow-up appointment is best, so you can plan more precisely.
Hi Si Han! That's a great question. I'm curious, for the type of treatment you're planning, how long will the recovery time be? That will significantly impact how many days you'll need to stay in Korea, especially if you want to return to the office or resume your normal activities.
