Nervous about budgeting for a procedure trip to Korea – how do you actually plan this?

Hey everyone, I'm seriously considering doing a cosmetic procedure in Korea and I'm trying to wrap my head around the whole trip logistics. Like, I know the procedures themselves might be more affordable than back home, but I'm worried about all the hidden costs I'm not thinking about – flights, accommodation, food, time off work. Has anyone done this before and can share how they budgeted for it?

I'm also unclear on the timeline. Do you need to be there for multiple appointments before the actual procedure? And then recovery – how many days should I realistically plan to stay? I'm imagining I can't just fly back the day after, but I also can't afford to be away for like three weeks. I feel like there's so much I don't know about planning something like this internationally.

I'm trying to be smart about it and not just jump in blind, but I also don't want to overthink it so much that I never actually go. Any tips on how to start planning? Should I reach out to places first to understand the appointment schedule, or figure out my budget and days available first? I'm honestly a bit overwhelmed, so any advice from people who've been through this would be really helpful!
