Hi everyone! So I'm planning to get a small aesthetic procedure done while I'm in Korea next month, and I'm a bit nervous about flying home right after. I know swelling is pretty normal, but I'm wondering if anyone has tips for managing it, especially since I'll be on a long flight back to the US a few days later.

I'm thinking I should pack some gentle cooling masks or maybe compression gear? Also, are there any over-the-counter aftercare products (like serums or lightweight creams) that people usually recommend bringing from Korea? I don't want to bring anything that might cause issues with customs, so I'm trying to figure out what's actually helpful vs. what's just nice-to-have.

Has anyone traveled shortly after getting work done? I'd love to hear what actually made a difference for you during recovery. Any general tips would be super helpful!
