Seoul Touchup review by Mr.N** on our services when he had planned to have rhinoplasty in Korea

Hi guys! I’d like to leave my review that I had with my Seoul Touchup Tour. This company seemed to be already popular as a medical agency, so I’d like to share my experience with Seoul Touchup Tourism. I was looking for rhinoplasty as well as tourism in Korea because I wanted to enjoy my days in Korea after the surgery. My friend who had plastic surgery recommended Seoul Touchup, and thankfully Seoul Touchup not only provides medical related services but also tour services!

Seoul Touchup review by MR.N** on our support when he was deciding where to go for plastic surgery

My friend told me that I can easily find their website on Google. I contacted Seoul Touchup by filling up ‘Get Started’ form on the website, and their reply was very quick. They helped me to arrange my tour and accommodation. All I had to do was to buy my plane ticket and send them my flight details. Basically Seoul Touchup handled everything else for me! They booked me with Foreheal Hotel with breakfast included. This hotel is a 4-star hotel located in Gangnam of Seoul. It was a great stay for me because the location was very suitable for tourists and the room was cozy and clean. I was actually surprised that the price I was offered by Seoul Touchup was much cheaper than what was offered on other hotel booking websites.

Seoul TouchUp review by Mr.N** on our convenient and reliable service at plastic surgery clinic

It was my first time to visit Korea. When I had just arrived at the airport, I was a bit nervous about myself being alone in a foreign country. To my relief, as soon as I went out the gate, Seoul Touchup team was already waiting for me. They welcomed me with warm-heart, and quickly took me to the hotel. On the first day, I had consultation for my nose and got arranged for surgery day. Personally, it was the most stressful and anxious time for me because whether or not they are good, it is the surgery anyway. I couldn’t get rid of my thoughts on any bad outcomes. Without Seoul Touchup team who was with me during the consultation to explain all details and make me think positive, I could not have done any surgeries. I had a few days to get recovered after rhinoplasty and had a tour that Seoul Touchup arranged.

Seoul TouchUp's tour to attractive spots during his recovery period after rhinoplasty (Ssamziegil)

On the first day of my tour, Seoul Touchup team came to pick me up to my hotel to go Ssamziegil and The Garden of Morning Calm. Seoul Touchup took me to Ssamziegil. The area was full of interesting things such as artistic works, traditional products, craft workshops, restaurants, and more. There was so much to look around. I really liked the design of those traditional fans, and I bought one for a souvenir. After looking around the area for about an hour, we went into this restaurant for lunch. The restaurant looked very traditional. We had mixed rice with other side dishes. The food was great overall. Personally, I liked the taste of this soup called Doenjang Jjigae. They said it’s made with soybean. After our lunch, we moved on to The Garden of Morning Calm.

We went to Garden of Morning Calm in Gapyeong. Luckily, there wasn’t so much traffic, and it only took us about 1 hour and 30 minutes from Ssamziegil to the Garden. I was a bit tired from the tour, so I took a nap in the van. Thanks to Stephano, he is such a gentle driver! When I got there, the weather was so good. It was a perfect day for a tour around the garden. The garden was quite big. There were so many different kinds of flowers and trees. It felt like I was out of Korea because my first memory of Korea is Seoul, which is a modern and big city. I really liked the brick house in the garden. It was like one of the houses in fairy tales. I also liked the view of the pond. We spent about 2 hours in the garden before we moved on to get back to our hotel.

The members from Seoul Touchup were very kind and attentive, and they know where to guide me. I had such a quite beneficial time overall while I was focusing on recovery after surgery.

A Twitch streamer gets plastic surgery in Korea through Seoul TouchUp.

Written by jasmin0710. Posted in Korean Rhinoplasty, Medical Tourism Korea

IzzyG just had plastic surgery in Korea through Seoul TouchUp and filmed her good reviews!

Izzy already had a nose job in the USA, but she was very unpleased with the result because her nose tip was still droopy and long. She knew that there are many reputable plastic surgery clinics in Korea and was looking to visit Korea for revision. But she had no idea where to go since all she could is to search clinics merely through online; she is not familiar with Korea. As scanning all clinic information, she contacted us, Seoul Touchup through the official website by filling out our “Get Started” form.  She wanted to get rhinoplasty, and Seoul Touchup team recommended Banobagi clinic for her as they have experienced and skilled doctors for her case, and planned out her tour in Korea.

Izzy G, also known as Pink Sparkles, is a popular live streamer on Twitch with over 700,000 followers. She also has over 160,000 followers on her Instagram account.

What Seoul Touchup does for her during her stay in Korea for plastic surgery

Izzy arrived in Korea at around the noon. She seemed to be happy and relieved when she saw Seoul Touchup team waiting for her at the airport. The weather was very nice when she arrived. We went right away to the clinic for consultation of her surgery as scheduled!

Seoul Touchup provides full package service, which includes schedule arrangement, airport pickup/drop-off, transportation for any clinic visit, accommodation (4-star hotels), breakfast, groceries and after-care services. Because of our services, she could enjoy flawless and convenient time in Korea. All she needed to do was to buy her flight ticket.

What Seoul Touchup does for her at clinic for plastic surgery

Izzy visited Banobagi clinic for consultation. After she had preparation for consultation, she met a doctor who is specialized in rhinoplasty. She told the doctor that she wanted to have her nose tip lifted and a bit shortened. She was very happy with the consultation because the doctor clearly understood what her concern was and his explanation was quite understandable.

Seoul Touchup guarantees the lowest prices with their partnered clinics. Seoul Touchup offers partnership price for their customers, which is lower than quotation that people would get from clinics as an individual.

What Seoul Touchup provides for Seoul tour

After Izzy’s first consultation with the doctor at the clinic, Seoul Touchup Tour team took her to Gyeongbokgung Palace, an iconic palace in Korean history. The palace was in Seoul and took about 40 minutes’ drive. Before entering the palace, Izzy rented and put on Hanbok, a traditional Korean dress. She really liked her experience of going around the palace in Hanbok. It was a very special and new experience for her, and took many photos of herself in Hanbok to keep her memories. We looked around the palace area for about 2 hours.

Seoul Touchup Tour team also took Izzy on tour to Namsan Park, a symbolic park on a mountain at the center of Seoul. We took a cable car to the top of the mountain. Even though the day was quite cold, the sky was clear enough for her to enjoy the view of the whole landscape of Seoul city. Izzy really liked the view of the Seoul city and took photos and videos.

This is the end of part 1 of Izzy’s journey with Seoul Touchup. Please look forward to part 2 of her journey, which will be uploaded soon!

Be award of taxi in Seoul where there is always congested!

Written by jasmin0710. Posted in Medical Tourism Korea, Uncategorized

If you are coming to Korea for medical purposes, you will definitely need transport to move around in Korea. Taxi is one of the easiest and closest transport you can get. However, there are several issues on using taxi service in Seoul, South Korea. After reading this, you would probably prefer to have transport that could be provided whenever you need it.

Korean-speaking taxi drivers

Unfortunately, most taxi drivers in Korea do not speak English. You might confront some communication problems if you are not familiar with Korean. In fact, some drivers would just refuse to take foreign customers. In this case, you should arrange transport with someone who can speak English unless you are fluent in Korean!

Short distances and rush hours in Seoul

Some taxi drivers will refuse to drive if you are going only a short distance. It usually happens especially at night or during weekends and rush hours when there is a high demand. They would more easily select their clients with their taste during this period. You might end up standing up on the street for a certain period of time until you can finally find a taxi who is willing to give a ride.

Overcharging to strangers

There are some taxi drivers who see foreigners as easy targets to overcharge fares. For example, some taxi drivers may try to overcharge you by taking further routes, especially when you are not familiar with areas. In Seoul, the taxi fare is increased by 20% from midnight to 4 am. Surprisingly, the after-midnight fare can be applied by a simple press of a button. Who would dare to do it? But actually it is reported that some taxi drivers cheat on foreigners by applying after-midnight fares during the day.

Less economical prices 

Transportation from airport to Seoul charges minimum $40 USD for a regular taxi and minimum $100 USD for a van taxi. Since you are coming to Korea during holidays for a certain period of time, you will definitely need this transport service for airport pick-up and even drop-off as well.

Is it necessary to pay deposit to clinic before you arrive in Korea?

Written by jasmin0710. Posted in Medical Tourism Korea, Plastic Surgery News, Uncategorized

When you would like to book a surgery date, we always ask of you to do wire transfer for a deposit. You will probably wonder why it is necessary to pay deposit to clinic in advance while you are not even there yet. In this page, we will explain about how important it is to do so especially for those who visit Korea from overseas.

Why do you have to make a deposit to clinic?

Making a deposit is a first step to save the surgery spot. Most of the clinics nowadays have settled it as a policy. According to the policy, you can safely secure the date and time of your surgery by making a deposit. Imagine that the clinic suddenly changes the surgery date when you already have set out all the schedules for your medical tour to Korea! It could most likely happen to popular clinics where many clients visit if you don't pay deposit in advance. This may result in chaos on your schedules including the flight, hotel, tour, etc. Therefore, making a deposit to a clinic is like a promise with a clinic to prevent such an unexpected change.

A deposit to clinic for your sake

As you may have known, popular doctors at prestige plastic surgery clinics are tight with their schedules. Sometimes, their operation schedules are fully booked even for a month. It happens when the demand for local and international customers is extremely high. Therefore, you will find it difficult to book especially during the holidays and the vacation seasons. Because of that, deposit system has been a very important step for clients. Once you arrange a surgery date by paying the deposit, surgeons will save several hours for you as to have consultation and operation.

Beneficial to pay deposit after all

Just like mentioned above, a deposit policy is in fact very beneficial for both clients and clinics. How? It can prevent clients from being messed up with their schedules and clinics from canceling issues and missing other perspective clients.

How much would be the deposit?

The minimum deposit to save a surgery spot is approximately 10% of the total surgery fee. But it won’t be exactly 10% since you don’t get the final quote until you have a face-to-face consultation. It would be still okay though since they will deduct the deposit from the final payment. Click here to find out more about approximate plastic surgery fees. Please note that the price stated in the website is only an approximation. Also, it may subject to change depending on your specific conditions or which clinic you decide to go to. If you want to know more about prices, please submit your form to our website!

Should I also pay a deposit to SeoulTouchUp package service?

Finding a right doctor and a suitable clinic for you is already a massive and energy consuming work. But you still have a bunch of things to consider for your stay in South Korea: where to stay, how to get to hospital, how to get recovered well during your healing period etc.

What is better for you to pay a deposit through us is that you can also get Seoul Touchup package service arranged. It is all-in-one-step you can experience. The main services include hotel, airport pick-up and drop-off, transportation for all required check-ups, a private coordinator, after-care services, groceries etc.

Easy concept of deposit to a clinic

Despite of some of clients’ worries about paying deposit in advance, most of clients understand fairly well. It is because many other services are also using this deposit system such as Airbnb and even one-day surfing class. Having a plastic surgery can be one of the most important issues in your life, and has to be well-planned without any problem. By being said, there is no doubt about paying a deposit to make sure you save your surgery date well.

How Much Fun Can You Have After Your Plastic Surgery?

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Asian Plastic Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery, Medical Tourism Korea

Plastic surgery is often an emotional and sometimes stressful journey, especially if it is you first time having it done. Many patients work themselves up into a frenzy with worry, only to later discover that there really wasn’t much to worry about and that they were in safe hands. It is at this moment that people decide to have fun when they leave the clinic and to try new things and show their body off to the world. However, while this is a great thing to do at some point after your procedure, depending on how serious it was, you may have to wait a few months before setting out on a new adventure.

Korea has many wonderful things to offer to its visitors, especially if you happen to be in Seoul. Everything from its delicious cuisine, to sightseeing and entertainment is on offer, and it can be tempting to want to see all of that while you are still in the country, but every doctors advice will likely be that you stay as calm as possible after your procedure in order to allow the incisions to heal at a steady pace. Having said that, although minor procedures will have no effect on your daily routine, if you have traveled all the way to Korea to have something done, it is a lot more likely that it was because of a more serious procedure. And in this case, you will need to take into account your current condition first, before you decide to become an active tourist.

THE MOST LIKELY ACTIVITIES THAT YOU WILL NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM FOR A WHILE

The first thing that you need to be careful about is to make sure that you are not putting any extra strain on your incisions. A few days is not enough for them to heal properly, so if you decide to undergo some serious physical exercise your could be jeopardizing the doctor’s work and it could mess with the way that your incisions will heal. This includes going to the gym, doing sports, and also spending a lot of time on your feet. There is a reason why major surgeries are always done in the colder months, and reason behind this is the fact that a colder temperature is better for your healing process. So when you do something that really heats up your body, you are also stretching and loosening the skin around the incision, which could make it heal in a different shape or become irritated. Your surgeon has spent a lot of time planning your plastic surgery in Korea, and you should follow their advice until you have recovered completely. Do not place yourself in this kind of situation, as it will be impossible to recover from the mistakes unless you want to go back to the clinic to have the incisions redone, which is certainly not something that anyone would want to go through without a good enough reason. Instead, choose light activities that do not include a lot of walking.
