Is a trip to Seoul worth it for eyelid surgery? I'm looking for honest opinions 👀

Hi girls! I'm Reem from the UAE, and I'm seriously considering traveling to Seoul for double eyelid surgery. I've heard so many great stories about the doctors there and the natural-looking results, but I'm really torn. Is it worth the trouble, the expense, and the time away from home?

What worries me most is: how can I choose a trustworthy doctor here when I can't see them in person before I go? And how long is the follow-up period after the surgery? Do I have to go back to Seoul again? I'm already working and my vacation time is limited, so I'm worried the surgery will take longer than I expect.

I also want to hear from those who have gone through it... Is the difference in the quality of the surgery really worth traveling and leaving my family? Or can I get the same results here in the UAE? Sometimes I feel like I'm throwing money away and being away from my family's support during my recovery. Honestly, I'm so confused, so if anyone has been in the same situation, I'd love to hear about their experience.
