Hi everyone! I'm Rong, from China. I'm currently planning a small cosmetic procedure in Seoul and have heard that Korea is really professional in this area. I'm a bit torn about whether I should stay in Gangnam or Apgujeong. I've heard that these two areas have a high concentration of medical aesthetics clinics, but I'm not familiar with the geography at all.

Has anyone been before? Can you share where you stayed? I'm mainly concerned about transportation convenience, the surrounding dining and shopping options, and safety. I plan to stay for about a week, wanting to experience the local beauty culture while also doing some sightseeing.

Also, if anyone has recommended areas to stay or any tips, you're especially welcome to share! It's my first time going, so I'm a little nervous, haha. How far in advance should I book my treatments? I'm looking for guidance from experienced individuals!
