Hi everyone! I'm Peiyun, and I'm planning to get a minor procedure in Seoul soon. Since it's a business trip with a quick stopover, I won't be staying long. I'm a bit worried about post-procedure swelling and aftercare, especially about what products I should bring back to Taiwan to properly care for my skin.
I wanted to ask, what are the essential aftercare products for the first few days after this type of procedure? For example, anything for cold compresses, or skincare with specific ingredients? I'm not sure if the local clinic will provide a comprehensive list of at-home care products, so I wanted to know in advance what I should bring myself.
Also, would it be more convenient to buy aftercare products in Korea? Or is it safer to prepare everything in Taiwan and bring it with me? Has anyone had a similar experience they could share? Thanks!

I understand! I had the same worry when I came for a business trip. Honestly, I think it's safest to just follow the detailed care list provided by the clinic. Also, things like cooling sheets are widely available at drugstores in Korea, so it might be easier to buy them there instead of bringing them from Japan 😊
I totally understand your worries, Fae! I felt the same way when I first went to Seoul for a procedure. From my experience, clinics usually provide complete instructions, but it's definitely good to be prepared with your own things for peace of mind—especially for cooling products and gentle moisturizers. If possible, maybe ask the clinic beforehand what they recommend, and if you need anything extra, you can buy it here before you leave so you don't have to stress about finding it in Seoul while your face is swollen, haha.
