Hello, it's Madoka. I've been struggling with my double eyelids for a long time, and recently I've started thinking that getting surgery in Seoul might be a good option. I know I can get it done in Japan, but I've heard that clinics in Seoul have high technical skills, and I'm also curious about the prices... However, I'm still very anxious about having surgery abroad.
In reality, when I consider travel and accommodation costs, I wonder if the total cost isn't that different from getting it done in Japan. Also, thinking about post-operative follow-up and what to do if any problems arise, being far away seems like a risk...
For those who have had surgery in Seoul, what was your actual experience like? I'd be grateful if you could share the pros and cons, and what made you decide. I'm also curious about how you chose your clinic during the consultation phase. When deciding on surgery abroad, what points do you all consider?

Hi Madoka, I have the same questions about the cost and aftercare! Have you looked into whether the cost, plus airfare and accommodation in Seoul, is more reasonable than getting it done in Japan?
I'm considering the same thing and can really understand your concerns! Post-operative care and the distance are indeed the biggest worries, but I've heard that many people choose to stay a few extra days during recovery or confirm remote follow-up options with their doctor to feel more at ease.
