New Cosmetic Surgery laws in Australia start 1 July 2023
Under guidelines released by AHPRA (the Medical Board governing Australia) at the beginning of April, after 1st July 2023 all patients having cosmetic procedures (surgical and non-surgical) in Australia need to have a pyschological assessment including for Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) prior to the procedure.
All patients also need to have a referral from their GP for the consultation
We appreciate that you may find these new guidelines intrusive, but they are out of our control, Australia wide and will be performed by every clinic in Australia performing these treatments.
