Your First Consultation
Your first consultation is an opportunity for you to meet Dr Kohout, discuss your concerns, and explore potential treatment options.
Before Your Consultation
What to bring to your first consultation:
New Regulatory Requirements
Recent changes in Australian healthcare regulations, as mandated by AHPRA, have introduced new requirements for cosmetic surgery consultations and procedures. This has been implemented for patient safety and informed decision-making, you’ll need to provide a medical referral from your GP or another qualified medical practitioner before your initial cosmetic consultation with Dr Kohout.
In line with these regulations, you’ll have two consultations with Dr Kohout before any surgical procedure can be scheduled. This two-step process allows for thorough discussion, consideration, and planning.
After your second consultation, there’s a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period. This time allows you to carefully reflect on the information provided and your decision. Only after this period can you sign the consent form and pay any deposits towards your surgery.
We understand these steps may seem extensive, but they’re designed with your best interests in mind, making sure you have ample time to make a well-informed decision about your procedure.
Arriving at the Clinic for Your Consultation
Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by our receptionist who will ask you to complete some paperwork if you haven’t done so already. You’ll then be shown to our comfortable waiting area.
Our clinic is designed to provide a welcoming, professional atmosphere. You’ll find a calm, clean environment with modern amenities throughout your visit.
