Information For Patients

Swirly green and grey pattern as background

The Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons recognises there is a lot of information available online, through various channels. Often this information has inconsistentcies and can be generic.

Our Specialist Plastic Surgeons have also seen the end results of patients who have taken advice from people, given without the right qualifications or experience.

Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons has created this page specifically for you.

We know that you are reading this because you are searching for the correct information and researching who should perform your reconstructive or cosmetic plastic surgery and what your expectations should be.

Specialist Plastic Surgeons are accredited by the Commonwealth Government of Australia, through the Australian Medical Council, to perform all reconstructive and cosmetic plastic surgery.

Please use the information on this page to help prepare you for speaking to an accredited Specialist Plastic Surgeon. This more informed discussion will help make your decision easier.
