About
Vivian (Na-Ryung) Kim is an AHPRA-registered Registered Nurse and the founder of AURA SEOUL. Her clinical foundation was built across some of Australia's most demanding acute and critical care environments — surgical wards, high-dependency units, and intensive care over 5 years.
She holds a Graduate Certificate in Critical Care and the CCRN credential (Critical Care Registered Nurse). Born in Seoul and trained in Australia, she brings a bicultural perspective and a clinical safety mindset to every treatment.
At AURA SEOUL, every client receives a bespoke treatment plan — never a cookie-cutter approach. Vivian takes the time to understand your facial anatomy, aesthetic goals, and personal history before every consultation.
Our First Year — Specialist Focus
For AURA SEOUL's opening year, Vivian is focusing her practice on facial refinement — cheek and lip artistry, balanced anti-wrinkle work, and lower-face contouring. A disciplined, specialist-led approach where the safety instinct of intensive care nursing meets the considered restraint of Korean aesthetics.
