Yes, just expect to no matter what. I have never found a clinic that didn't so this when rescheduling.

Some differences you will notice is that factory clinics offer packages and have a much higher volume of patients. You can often feel rushed if you are not familiar with them. I have read stories of people having bad experiences with them because they had no idea they booked with this type of clinic.

Where are you getting the information about this? Are you seeing reviews, and before and afters? I am struggling to find info for this clinic.

You mentioned the cost and yes, they tend to be 30-50% cheaper than what you'd normally find in Korea. But they will undercharge you the first time and end up charging you more the second time, for things like Botox anyways. If you see tons of people waiting around, with long waiting periods even if you have something booked... That is usually a sign it is a factory clinic.

Pride PS is one of the clinics I see discussed a lot about online. So I am assuming it is one of the better ones. The issue is though, like every other clinic, Pride also has negative feedback.

I have come across some that lied about it though but I have a feeling these were not legit clinics. One of the ones I remember visiting and contacting, I can't even find the website for it anymore.

I have had this issue with certain clinics too unfortunately. I wonder if reaching out to clinics in cases like this would be worth it. I am sure they have English speakers there, even if not fluent. They want to attract as many people as possible and English is the most universally used language in the world I think.

Oh okay. Well this sounds expensive. I will have to look into it more. Sorry for my delayed response. I have not been on the forum in a hot minute. Been super busy. Anyways, thanks for the information. Maybe this could be an option for my brother.

People get information wrong online all the time. It is very easy to find groups of people posting the same incorrect information. This is why you have to research and why it is great places like this exist so people can correct each other.

You should provide it for your own sake, even if they don't ask. They should ask though for basic health issues. Like what medications you are on or if you have heart or lung conditions.

I don't know, I read the opposite. It seems like most people recommend being as close as possible because certain times of the day are so busy there a 3 min drive can take 10+ minutes.

I don't know anyone personally who had a nose job but I have seen before and afters and watched some videos on YouTube where people had them done. It seems like most people have swelling and bruising but eye swelling doesn't happen for everyone but it can happen for some. That can be a bit of an issue!

Wait, what is stem cell scalp treatment? I didn't know this was a thing. I have heard of doing blood plasma injections and botox but never stem cells. This sounds interesting and it might be worth my brother looking into.

What do you do if you take a medication on the banned list and have to take the pills with you? I mean I would imagine if they approve you, you still are able to bring your own and don't have to get pills in Korea right?

I figured this might be worth looking into while I am there. I have had issues with rosacea since my mid 30's. It is worse on one side vs the other but I have had a constant red flush for almost 5 years now. No matter what I have tried, nothing is working. I have tried just about every prescription pill and cream I could. I have heard of there being options with lasers or microneedling for it but I don't know if Korea offers these things for rosacea treatment. Anyone have any experience?
