Hey everyone! I'm planning to get nose filler done while I'm in Korea for a few weeks, but I'm a bit nervous about the timing. I'm flying back to the US in about 10 days, and I'm wondering if that's enough time to recover and not look like I just had work done lol.
Does anyone have experience with this? I know there can be swelling and maybe some bruising, but I'm not totally sure how long it typically lasts or if I should give myself more buffer time. Also not sure if flying right after would make things worse — like would the pressure or anything affect the results?
Any honest experiences would help so much! And if anyone thinks I should push my appointment back, I'm totally open to that too. Just want to be realistic about what to expect 😅

I was worried just like you when flying back after this period! 😅 Actually, 10 days is a bit tight, because I saw my friends still a bit swollen and with minor marks on days 7-8. If you're worried about international people seeing anything unusual, you might want to consider postponing or preparing thoroughly to conceal it 🙈
I've had similar treatments in Korea before, and ten days is indeed a bit tight 😅 In my experience, swelling is most noticeable in the first three to four days, and then it gradually subsides. So, if you plan to fly, you might still experience some puffiness. I recommend consulting with your doctor for a more accurate recovery timeline to be safe!
What type of filler are you considering? I've heard there are different kinds and the recovery times vary, but I'm not entirely sure 😅
May God give you good health! What do you think about postponing the appointment a little after you return from America? I'm afraid that 10 days might be too short, especially with the flight 😅
I understand! Are you free to get fillers before going to America now? 😅 Why don't you try asking the doctor directly how many days swelling usually lasts? Because it can differ for everyone.
Wow, 10 days seems a bit tight if you want to be completely healed without any marks! My friend had a procedure in Korea and flew back right after a week, and she said she still had mild swelling when she got on the plane — cabin pressure made her face puff up even more. It's probably best to ask the clinic you're considering directly about their timeline, as everyone's recovery is different 😅
