Hi everyone, it's Yun. I've been thinking lately about whether to go to Korea for a minor treatment, but I'm also hesitant about whether it's really necessary to fly all the way there. I can actually get it done domestically, and the doctors seem quite professional, but I always feel like Korea has more experience in this area?
My main concerns are cost and recovery time. Going to Korea would mean taking time off work, flights, accommodation, plus the treatment fee – it feels like it would cost a lot. And if there are any issues, I'd have to go back to Korea for follow-up appointments, which doesn't seem very convenient. But on the other hand, I've seen many people say that Korean doctors are very meticulous about details, and the results might be more ideal?
I'd like to ask everyone, how did you make your decisions? Has anyone had a procedure done domestically and regretted not going to Korea? Or vice versa? Or is the difference actually not that significant, and the key is finding the right doctor? I'm really torn and hope to hear some genuine thoughts!

I'm in the exact same situation! I'm torn between getting it done domestically versus going to Korea. Just like you, I'm heavily considering the before-and-after photos, prices, and recovery time for facial treatments.
