Seoul Beauty Trip: Which Area is Best to Stay In?

Hi, it's Misaki! I'm going to Seoul next month for beauty treatments, and I'm wondering where everyone usually stays.

I've heard there are a lot of cosmetic clinics around Gangnam and Apgujeong, but is that really true? If I'm getting treatment, it makes sense to stay nearby, right? Considering travel and recovery time. But I also want to do some sightseeing, so I'm torn about the best balance 😅

For those of you who have traveled from abroad for beauty treatments, which areas do you recommend? I'd love to hear your actual experiences regarding accessibility, atmosphere, and nearby food options. Also, since it's my first time in Seoul, I'm curious about how much buffer time you build into your schedule before and after treatments. Has anyone done this before?
