How long should I plan my trip for?

I am going to be going to get a face lift at a plastic surgery clinic in Korea. I have already been in touch with 3 clinics, just trying to decide which to go with. 

As I am planning, I have to figure out my hotel stay and how long before and after my surgery I should be in Korea. I don't intend on doing much outside of my surgery. Maybe trying some food and doing some light shopping. I know I am going to need to rest. 

What do you think I should plan for for a face lift?

Usually you go home the same day although some people might be asked to stay overnight. I don't think you have to worry about an extended stay. Just make sure you go early enough to allow for meeting with doctors and then time to rest before hopping back on a plane so you aren't miserable.

I read this on another site. A lot of people say this. You do not want to be fresh from a surgery on a long flight!! I am not sure how long I will need but I am intending on staying at least 3 or 4 days after just to be sure.
