I've been thinking about getting double eyelid surgery in Seoul lately. It can be done in China, but I've heard a lot about how Korean aesthetics and techniques are quite unique, and after seeing some testimonials from other women, I'm really tempted. The problem is, it requires taking time off work, buying plane tickets and accommodation, which isn't cheap, and I also have to consider the recovery period.

My main hesitation is – is it really necessary to fly there specifically, or can I just find a reliable doctor in China? Has anyone had this experience, traveling from China to Korea for this kind of surgery? I'd like to hear your decisions and whether it's worth the hassle.

Also, I'm not sure how to budget. Round-trip airfare, accommodation, and surgery costs seem like a lot. If I were to go, do you have any advice? For example, how do I choose a clinic, or what research should I do beforehand?
