My first time going to Korea for cosmetic surgery - I don't know how to budget properly.

Hi everyone, I'm Huong from Vietnam. I'm planning a trip to South Korea for a cosmetic procedure that I haven't tried in a while, but I'm a bit confused about calculating the total cost of the trip. I know the cost of the procedure can vary considerably depending on the location and type, but I'm not sure how much money I need to prepare for airfare, hotel, and food to be safe.

I also want to ask how long it usually takes to recover and return to Vietnam without stress? I've heard that some procedures only require a few days, but others need longer for the swelling to subside. And is it advisable to research aftercare or follow-up appointments before deciding to book one?

I wonder if anyone in this group has ever planned a trip like this? Do you have any tips on how to create a realistic and stress-free itinerary? I want to prepare thoroughly so that this trip can be both worry-free and not too expensive 🥺
