Hey everyone! I'm Nora, just found this community and I'm already scrolling through everything lol. I'm from the US (Pacific Northwest, if anyone's curious) and I've been kind of secretly diving into K-beauty for like the past year. Started with skincare and now I'm totally down the rabbit hole wondering about aesthetic treatments.

So basically, I got into Korean beauty content on YouTube and TikTok, and I noticed how different the whole approach is compared to what we usually see back home? Like, the emphasis on prevention and long-term skin health instead of quick fixes really clicked with me. Plus, I've seen some incredible before-and-afters from people getting treatments in Korea, and I'm curious about the whole vibe there.

I'm not at the point of booking anything yet — still doing my research and honestly trying to figure out what's realistic for me — but I love how open this community seems about experiences. Has anyone here traveled to Korea specifically for treatments? I'd love to hear what that was actually like, the good and the messy parts. Also if anyone has recs for good resources to learn more, I'm all ears!
