Hi, I'm Mei. I'm getting a minor procedure in Korea next month, but I have a trip planned right after... I'd really appreciate some advice from people with experience regarding aftercare until the swelling goes down.
I've heard that swelling lasts for a few days after the procedure, and when you're traveling, you're doing your makeup and skincare in a different environment than usual, right? What items would you bring? I'd love to know if there are any cooling sheets, creams with specific ingredients, or anything else that's really helpful.
Also, will flying or washing my face with the water in a new hotel affect the swelling? I might be worrying too much, but I want to minimize the swelling as much as possible.
If anyone has actually experienced a similar situation, I'd be grateful if you could tell me what you did to manage it. Thank you!

Mei, I'm also planning something similar next month and honestly worried like you about swelling while traveling haha. From what I've read here, most people say bringing a cooling sheet and gentle moisturizer is enough to help, but I'd also like to hear from those who have experience! Hopefully someone can share some practical tips for our situation 😊
Hey Mei, have you tried using a cold towel or ice pack on your flight? I'm also going on a trip soon after getting my tattoo done, so I wanted to know if your method of protecting my skin on the plane is helpful 🥶
