Hello, my name is Mae, and I'm currently considering going to Korea for double eyelid surgery. It's something I've wanted to do for a long time, but I'm hesitant because of the long journey, the cost, and the need to stay in Korea for a period of time. I'm not sure if it's really worth it.
What's really pushing me to consider this is listening to friends' experiences and looking at social media. It seems like Seoul has many doctors and centers specializing in this procedure. But when I think about the expensive travel and accommodation costs, and the need to follow a team of doctors through the design process, I feel uncertain. Could someone please tell me if those who traveled so far felt it was truly worthwhile?
I've also found places in Thailand where I can get this done, but I don't know what the results will be or how much it will cost. If anyone has experience traveling or comparing options, please share your opinions. I'm feeling confused about which option is best for me.

I'm in a similar situation, so I completely understand your concerns! Flights and accommodation costs are indeed significant, but I've heard many people say that experiences and final outcomes can vary from person to person and from place to place. If you have the time, perhaps you should research both places thoroughly before deciding, and make a note of any questions you need to ask your doctor!
I'm also considering this, so I understand how you feel! I have friends who went to Korea to work and came back with good results, but I still haven't decided because I'm worried about the cost and time. Have you found any information about the cost of living in Thailand? Can you compare it to Korea?
