Hi everyone! I'm Brooke from the US and I'm thinking about taking a trip to Seoul next spring specifically to explore some aesthetic treatments and skincare. I've heard Gangnam and Apgujeong are like *the* places for this kind of stuff, but honestly I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the options.
For anyone who's been or lives there — where did you actually stay? I'm trying to figure out if it makes sense to base myself in one of those neighborhoods or if I should look elsewhere. Also, are those areas actually as packed with clinics as everyone says, or is it kind of overhyped for tourists? I'm interested in consultations and maybe some non-invasive stuff, just exploring what's available.
And real talk — what's the vibe like in those neighborhoods? I want somewhere walkable where I can also just chill and enjoy the city, not just clinic-hopping the whole time lol. Any recommendations from other foreigners who've done a similar trip? How long did you stay?

Hi! I'm also planning a trip to Seoul this spring. I'm curious about what type of non-invasive treatments you're referring to. Also, how long do you plan to stay there? That way, I can better plan my itinerary too 😊
Hello! I'm also planning a trip to Seoul this spring and your post really resonated with me 😄 I wanted to ask, you mentioned wanting to try some non-invasive treatments – have you done any research beforehand? For example, do you already know what kind of procedures you're interested in, or are you planning to see what's available once you get there?
