Should I fly to Seoul to get double eyelid surgery?

I understand your concerns! I also had cosmetic procedures done abroad before, and my biggest piece of advice is that post-operative follow-up is extremely important—I kept my doctor's contact information so I could ask them directly if I had any questions, which put my mind at ease. Perhaps you could ask the doctor you consulted if they offer remote consultations after the procedure, so you can communicate promptly if you have any questions after returning home, instead of necessarily choosing a domestic hospital 😊

I completely understand your concerns. I was also considering having surgery in Seoul from abroad! The biggest problem was indeed what to do if problems arose during the recovery period, since I couldn't travel back and forth frequently. In the end, I chose to have it done domestically. Although it might not be as perfect as some people say, at least I can immediately see a doctor if any problems arise, which gives me more peace of mind. You could consult with several local hospitals; you might be pleasantly surprised! 😊

I totally relate, Tam! I was also tempted by the great results I saw in Seoul, but my biggest concern was the follow-up care I'd need if I returned to Indonesia. It might be worth considering consulting a local doctor first for a second opinion; who knows, there might be a better option that's more practical for the long term.

I totally understand your concerns, Tam! I thought the same thing before going to Seoul—the total cost is really high when you add in the airfare and accommodation, and the most nerve-wracking part is what if something goes wrong once you get back to Indonesia. I think before making a decision, try consulting with a few local doctors first to get a sense of their quality, and then compare them with those in Seoul from online research—that way you'll have a clearer picture before committing to such a large expense!
