Hey everyone! I'm planning to go to Korea at the end of this month and get a cross-hatching procedure done. It seems like it should be fine to start, but I'll need to fly back to Mongolia in 5 days. After a light procedure, do I usually have to wait a few days? Will there be redness, bruising, or any other symptoms? Just so you know, I understand that I should have a detailed consultation before the procedure as my doctor recommended, but I'm generally curious about what people's experiences have been. Have you had this done? How many days later did it already feel good?

Oh, have you decided where in Korea you're going yet? I'm asking because I want to know how people who've already gone handle their flights when they have swelling 🥺
It's also my first time coming to Korea for a minor procedure, and I'm a bit worried about the recovery time before flying! I've heard swelling usually goes down in just a few days, but it varies from person to person, so it's best to ask your doctor about how your specific situation will progress.
I was worried about this too when flying back home after getting cosmetic work done! Five days seems like it should be okay, but I think you should ask your doctor thoroughly during your consultation to understand what your specific recovery plan will look like, since it's different for everyone.
