New to plastic surgery in Korea, where to begin?

[nichola37]

Hi everyone. I recently started looking into plastic surgery options in South Korea because a friend at work mentioned it being much cheaper. I was comparing standard pricing and pretty much everything is more affordable. Even with the cost of travel, it works out to being less than here in the US. 

So I am hoping to find a clinic and maybe get something booked either later this year or early 2027. What I am after is subtle facial work, anti-aging, lifting, and just making my face more uniform and even. I don't want to look like I had a lot of work done. I see a lot of women get their faces done and they all end up having that same plastic look to them, I want to avoid that if possible. I would imagine it depends on the doctor. I read about a few clinics where people that have mentioned what I am after,  Pride Plastic Surgery being one of them but I would have to research the doctor/doctors more. 

Approaching this from a completely different country has been proven to be a bit confusing and overwhelming! I am hoping to get some guidance here on not only the best clinics to look into for what I want, but planning, costs, hotels, etc. So for someone completely new to this, where should I even begin?

I would start with what work you want done. Figure that out and then find a clinic. If you are no sure, schedule something locally to get an idea of what you want. You don't need to book a surgery after a consultation.

There are so many clinics that even giving you a list of the top ones would be extensive!

What would you say your budget is?
