Hello everyone, I'm Giang from Vietnam. I'm planning to go to South Korea for some cosmetic procedures, but I'm really overwhelmed trying to calculate the total cost of the trip. I'm worried about the cost of the procedures themselves, plus airfare, accommodation, food, etc. It all adds up and feels very stressful. Does anyone in the group have experience with this? I'd like to know how everyone usually plans.
I also don't know how long I'll need to stay, as recovery time needs to be factored in. Is 4-5 days enough, or do I need to stay longer? And where do you usually find information about accommodation and flight costs? I'm afraid I'll underestimate something and then have to worry about extra money later, which would be very stressful.
I would be very grateful if you could share your experiences. I just want a clear plan, no surprises. 😅

I'm also considering this trip, so I found your post very relatable! I think 5-7 days would be safer to allow for comfortable recovery time, as 4 days seems a bit rushed. You can look for flights and hotels on sites like Booking and Skyscanner to compare prices, but for the specific costs of procedures, you should contact the facilities directly for clearer consultation.
I completely understand your concern, Jiang. I also came from the UAE and was very worried about the overall budget 😅. My advice is to calculate everything separately first—the flight, accommodation, and treatments—and then add an extra amount for emergencies. As for the duration, I preferred to stay for about a week to ensure adequate rest and follow-up, but this depends on the type of treatment you choose.
Hi Giang! I understand your feelings completely, as I have similar concerns. I have a question: how long are you planning to stay this time? I'm also wondering if 4-5 days will be enough, and I'd love to hear from someone who has actually experienced it.
Hey Giang! I'm also planning a trip from the US soon and wondering the same thing — did you end up asking the clinics directly about how long they recommend staying for recovery? I feel like that timeline would really help both of us figure out the total trip length and budget better.
