Is double eyelid surgery in Seoul worth it for me from Indonesia?
Hi everyone! I'm seriously considering flying to Seoul specifically for double eyelid surgery. I've wanted it for a long time, but I've been hesitant because I live in Indonesia. Now I'm starting to get serious, but I still have a lot of questions about whether this is the right decision.
What I'm thinking about is: is the cost of travel + accommodation + the procedure worth it if I could also have the surgery here? I've heard the quality in Korea is indeed good, but I'm also not sure if the difference is significant or just hype. Plus, there's the recovery process to go through—what if I have to stay in Seoul for follow-up appointments? I don't know the details of how all that works yet.
Has anyone made a similar decision? How do you go about it if you choose a procedure abroad—does it require extensive research, or are there practical tips I'm missing? I'm also interested in hearing about the experiences of people who have taken this step, especially regarding the overall cost and peace of mind. Thanks in advance!

I'm also really considering this! Traveling from far away to do something I've wanted for a long time is normal, but the cost + recovery time are what worry me the most. Have you asked people who've done it before, and asked them if they had to stay in Seoul for follow-up appointments or if they could fly home early? I feel like that's the key factor in determining if this is feasible.
Ah, I totally get it! It's really worrying when you're thinking about going for surgery like that. Great question. How long do you need to stay in recovery there? I've been wondering the same thing myself. Can you get it all done with just one trip?
I'm not the only one! I'm in the same boat—coming from overseas and hesitant about the total cost versus quality. I'm curious how you did your research, and if anyone who's been through it wants to share their experience. I'm still unsure myself right now 😅
My opinion is that if you've been thinking about it for a long time, you can go ahead and make it happen. But the important thing is to ask friends who have actually been there about their recovery, because if you have to stay in Korea for a long time, only then will it be worth it 😊
It's understandable to be concerned about how to spend your recovery period when traveling all the way from Indonesia, right? 😅 I really think it's true that people want to hear from those who have actually experienced it, about how long they need to stay in Seoul after surgery. I was worried about the same thing, so it would be great if someone knowledgeable could share their insights!
