Hello, friends! I'm planning a trip to Seoul next season for reconstructive surgery and I'm carefully considering what to pack for the recovery phase. I believe planning is essential, especially when aiming for the best possible outcome.
On that note, have any of you packed over-the-counter products like cooling masks, silicone scar sheets, or soothing gels? Is it better to bring some things from home, or are they easier to purchase in Seoul? I've heard good things about sheet masks, but I'm curious about your experiences.
If you've already taken this type of trip, what products did you find valuable? I want to be prepared before I ask. Goodbye!

I'm also going to Seoul soon and I'm worried about this too! I heard there are more options when buying there, but I'll definitely need to research thoroughly. Does anyone know if cosmetics stores or drugstores have all of these items?
I understand! I struggled with the same thing before 😅 Honestly, basic masks and gels are pretty easy to find in Korea, so I think it's a good idea to avoid heavy luggage and buy them there. However, if there are products you're used to using daily, you might want to bring those. Your skin can become sensitive during the recovery period, so sticking with your usual products can offer peace of mind!
I also thought the same thing before going to Seoul! From my experience, it's more practical to buy some basic stuff there because there are many options and the prices are comparable. However, I still brought a few favorites from home that I already know, just for peace of mind, haha. I think planning the recovery routine is more important than the products themselves.
