I'm torn between working in Vietnam or going to Korea... what are your decisions?

Hi everyone! My name is Oanh, and I'm currently considering a cosmetic procedure, but I'm really unsure whether to have it done at home or in South Korea. There are reputable clinics near my home in Vietnam, and the cost is significantly lower, but I've heard from friends that the techniques in Korea are different. I'm worried that the quality won't be the same if I choose to have it done at home.

On the other hand, going to Korea would cost money for travel, personal expenses, and I'd have to take a few days off work. However, I feel more secure knowing I can research the procedure in person, meet with the doctor, and then decide. I'm also not sure if the techniques there are actually better or if it's just my own perception.

Have any of you ever been in this situation? I'd like to hear your experiences—how did you decide, what were your reasons, and do you regret it? I'm really confused 😅
