LASIK changes the cornea permanently. An eye examination must guide the decision, including whether to keep using glasses or contact lenses.

A hair transplant may not suit every cause of hair loss. Ask about diagnosis, donor hair and future hair loss first.

Confirm where to go, what to bring and how to ask your questions before the appointment.

Before leaving the clinic, agree on who will review your recovery in Korea and after you return home.

Ask the receiving clinic which records it needs before you collect or translate documents.

Choose according to the care and support you need. A hospital’s size or an international label does not guarantee a suitable treatment.

A second opinion can help you compare explanations and options. Ask your current clinician whether waiting could affect urgent care.

Ask your treating clinician when you can fly. A general waiting period cannot establish that you are fit to travel.

A hospital’s international center can help coordinate a visit. Confirm the actual services before sending records or booking travel.

Arrange language support before your visit. Confirm that you can ask the clinician questions through the interpreter.
