To do skin tightening such as ultherapy if I have 2 weeks on vacation in Japan after? I am worried about redness swelling or discomfort the next few days after and don't want it to detract from my vacation or look awful for photos.
Also I'm kinda second guessing myself as some of the reviews show very subtle only changes from 600 shots. Anyone have advice?
Hello! We are a family of 4 and this is a first visit. Boys are 12 and 13 and love Baseball, Gaming, Anime, F1 and fast cars, Manga/Anime (One Piece and Jujitsu Kaisen are favorites) and Japanese food (or what we've been exposed to- sushi). PLease please please let me know any advice opinion comments questions. I am falling in love with Japan just planning but am trying to leave things flexible and see this as a guide not a must do (Although we would pre book the Osaka flight, Sukuza race weekend and circuit challenger, and JDM tour which are trip priorities
