Dr. Amira Sanki BSc(med) MBBS PhD FRACS(plast) | Specialist Plastic Surgeon | A New Era for Patient Safety

In this episode I sit down with renowned holistic facialist and dermal therapist April Brodie, fresh from her deep plane facelift in Seoul, to talk about what really sits behind the global obsession with K Beauty.

We compare our recent trips to South Korea, from elite multi level clinics with corridors full of devices, to the chaos and delight of Olive Young and the clinical world of Korea Derma and regenerative medicine. April shares the story behind her signature Korean inspired facial, why technique can rival technology, and what she learnt from her own surgical journey.

We talk Rejuran and salmon DNA biostimulation, the difference between PDRN in skincare and injectable DOT technology, why “glass skin” is a fantasy, and the categories that Koreans are quietly leading in, from scalp care to intimate care, sun care and beauty tools. There is also a healthy dose of reality about consent, safety, cultural expectations and what Australian women need to consider before chasing Korean level transformation.

This is a candid, nuanced and very practical conversation about K Beauty, ageing, and how to edit all that innovation into a routine and treatment path that actually serves your skin.

Highlights
How a single buccal facial in London turned April from laser heavy protocols to hands on sculpting techniques.
The story behind her Korean influenced facial that uses bone therapy principles, Eastern European methods and Korean cleansing rituals.
What we both observed inside ultra elite Korean clinics, from the sheer number of devices to the culture of sedation and intensive treatment stacking.
The difference between Rejuran’s salmon DNA DOT technology and PDRN in topical skincare, and why that distinction matters.
How to shop K Beauty in Olive Young without destroying your barrier or being distracted by trends.
The categories where Korea is genuinely ahead, including sunscreens, scalp care, breath care, intimate care and tools.
Why “glass skin” is a Western marketing idea, not a Korean standard, and how chasing it can damage both barrier and self esteem.
A realistic, edited K Beauty inspired routine for busy women who want results without a ten step ritual.

Navigating the Myths of Hair Loss with Dr Leona Yip

Carlii Lyon has spent more than two decades helping extraordinary people shape their stories, from supermodels and global entrepreneurs to bestselling authors and spiritual leaders. As a publicist, she built reputations that captured the world’s attention, but over time her work shifted from curating others’ narratives to reclaiming her own.

Her book Courage to Be – Small Steps for a Big Life is part memoir, part manifesto, exploring the quiet but profound acts of courage that redefine our lives. Through honest storytelling, Carlii invites readers to embrace visibility, imperfection and the liberation that comes with speaking our truth.

This conversation is both professional and deeply personal. Carlii and I have known each other for nearly twenty years, through motherhood, reinvention and the ever-evolving landscape of womanhood. She introduced me to Dr John Demartini and Miranda Kerr when her career as a powerhouse publicist was in full swing. I met her as a junior publicist, full of promise and drive, and we have travelled together, breastfed our babies side by side, and held each other through heartbreak and triumph.

In this episode we talk about authenticity, confidence, storytelling and self-discovery—the courage to evolve, to be seen and to stand fully in your truth.

Listen or watch the full conversation on Spotify, iTunes and YouTube. Link in bio.

Key Takeaways
Authentic personal branding begins with self-acceptance
Style and presence can express confidence without pretense
Relationships and friendships are essential to personal growth
Self-doubt fades when we own our unique path
Evolution requires courage and curiosity
Community support fuels reinvention
Beauty is individual and should be celebrated
