The practitioner performing the procedure should provide you with enough information to make an informed decision about whether or not to have the procedure. That means having a consultation that is not rushed and questions are able to be asked. The consultation should also be with the Doctor/Surgeon who will be doing your procedure, not by a Nurse or Sales Consultant of the practice. Consumers should be provided with at least the following information:
What does the procedure involve? Is the procedure new or experimental? What products are being used in the procedure and are these products registered? What are the range of possible outcomes of the procedure? What are the risks and possible complications associated with the procedure? Breast Excellence Australia encourages those considering any cosmetic procedure to go to a reputable, law-abiding clinic. They strongly recommend asking the Medical Practitioner about their qualifications, training and relevant experience in the procedure you are considering.
