Hi everyone, I'm Hong! I'm considering getting a nose filler in Korea, but I'm a little worried about the recovery period. I'm coming from China and my stay is limited, so I'd like to ask everyone—how long after a non-surgical nose filler procedure can I fly back home?
I've heard there's some swelling and bruising, but how long does it take to subside? Has anyone had a similar procedure and could share their experience? I'm especially wondering if it's realistic to fly back within a week, or is it safer to stay longer?
Also, are there any special precautions I should take during the recovery period? For example, will flying affect the results or the recovery speed? This is my first time considering this, so I'm a little nervous. Any advice and experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thank you 😊

I'm also from Vietnam, and last time I had a similar procedure and felt some swelling for the first few days, so I stayed an extra 5-7 days before flying back home to feel more at ease 😊 Maybe you should ask the clinic directly for specific advice regarding your situation!
I did something similar a few months ago, and I was just as worried about flying back as you are. My experience is that you should stay for at least 5-7 extra days because the swelling is quite significant in the first few days, it doesn't go away in just a few days. You should ask the clinic for more specific guidance based on your situation! 😊
I'm also thinking of doing the same thing and I'm worried about the trip! I've heard from some girls that swelling and bruising vary from person to person, but most of them said a week might be a bit tight, especially if you're flying. Please ask your doctor for the exact timing, as she knows best based on your individual case. 💕
Hey Hong! I'm in a similar situation with limited time here too — did your doctor give you any specific timeline before you booked your flight, or are you still in the planning stage? I'm curious if people usually just go with what feels comfortable or if there's a more standard waiting period people mention.
I'm actually thinking about doing the same thing soon, so I totally get your concern about timing! From what I've read on here, most people seem to say waiting at least a week is safer, but honestly everyone's different — some say the worst swelling goes down faster than others. Definitely worth asking the clinic directly about your specific situation since you have limited time!
Same! I'm wondering the same thing, wondering how long it will take before I can fly home without worry. From what I've read on forums, many people say a week is still a bit tight, but some people can make it, so maybe we should both just ask the clinic directly about our personal timelines.
