Hi there, I'm Jib 😅 I'm seriously thinking about going to Korea to get some procedures done, but I'm really lacking confidence when it comes to the budget. I'm wondering how much money I should prepare and how many days I should plan for. Has anyone done this before?
What worries me the most is not knowing where to allocate my money. I need to factor in flights, accommodation, food, and the procedure costs themselves, but I'm not sure about the prices of each thing. Some people have mentioned I might need to stay for a few days for recovery, but I don't know exactly how long that actually is.
Another thing is booking through which channel and how to find a good clinic. Can people recommend trustworthy teams they've personally tried? Because I want everything to be safe and look natural—not the kind of situation where I regret it afterward 😭 Does anyone have experience with this? Could you please share some tips on planning both the budget and timeline?

Hey Zibra! I'm actually thinking about the same thing, so I totally relate to your budget concerns 😅 The good news is that so many people from here have already been and shared their experiences in this community—hopefully we can pick up some useful tips from them!
I totally understand your concerns! I also did my homework before coming to Korea, and budget planning really does need careful consideration. My suggestion is to start by making a list and breaking down costs separately—flights, accommodation, food, and surgery fees—that way you'll feel more confident about the numbers. As for recovery time, it varies quite a bit depending on the procedure, so you might want to consult beforehand to get the details straight. That way you can plan your time off more reasonably 😊
