foreign patients spent 768.5 billion won at korean dermatology clinics in just the first half of this year, up 49.5%, and their pharmacy spending went up almost 88%. in mexico it's the other way around, americans cross the border to see our dentists, so i get it lol. my second seoul trip budget already has a skincare line and it's not small

I'll stay in the Olive Young aisle. That's dangerous enough for my wallet.

Makes sense. Skin clinics have short recovery, you can fit it between sightseeing days. The data says they've overtaken plastic surgery by a lot.

Olive Young is the gateway. Nobody walks in for one sunscreen and walks out with one sunscreen.

As a nurse I'd only say go somewhere properly licensed. Fast and cheap isn't automatically good.

Pharmacies up 88%. That's a lot of people carrying the same cream home.

The skincare line in the budget is how every second Seoul trip starts. The first trip it's always "just sightseeing".

Brits go to Hungary for teeth. Seoul for skin sounds like a much better excuse than a beach.
