Plastic surgery in Seoul

V
#1

Hello! I’m Leah, living in California and frequently traveling to Korea. I’m currently considering nose surgery but having trouble choosing the right hospital. I would prefer a hospital with a well-organized translation team. If anyone has experience or recommendations, I’d greatly appreciate it!

Plus, I would prefer a hospital that provides accommodation, as I’ve been staying in hotels frequently and the costs add up. 🥹

Hi Leah, I think it’s a good idea to take your time comparing clinics and reading reviews from people who traveled from overseas. Translation support can really make things less stressful during consultations and recovery.


You could also ask directly if they help patients with accommodation or recommend nearby places to stay, since that seems pretty common for international patients in Seoul.
