Fees and Medicare

Initial consultation fee is $285 for a cosmetic presentation and an out of pocket gap of $180 for a medically indicated presentation.

Medicare will not cover a consultation for cosmetic surgery or a cosmetic procedure.

Some procedures such as an upper eyelid blepharoplasty or septoplasty may have a Medicare rebate in very specific circumstances.   

As per AHPRA, cosmetic surgery presentations require a referral from a GP or other specialist before being seen by a plastic surgeon.   Non cosmetic medically indicated presentations also require a referral letter before being seen.
