Hi, everyone. I’m standing here in snowy Korea. We’re at a science park outside of Seoul. I’m about to get started on a busy day’s worth of meetings with Korean healthcare companies. Time to get started.

Korea has the most plastic surgeons per capita in the world and performs more medical aesthetic procedures than anywhere else as well, which provides opportunity for the domestic companies in the industry.
