Local consultation with GP referral, implant planning and sizing where relevant, informed consent, a mandatory cooling‑off period, surgery in an accredited facility, recovery and scheduled follow up.

Do I need a GP referral before cosmetic breast augmentation?

Yes. In Australia, a referral from your usual GP is required before consulting the doctor who will perform cosmetic surgery.

Is there a cooling‑off period?

Yes. There must be at least seven days after informed consent and the required consultations before cosmetic surgery can be booked or a deposit paid.

Who operates and where, accreditation, implant recommendation and rationale, written quote inclusions, after‑hours contact, downtime, aftercare and revision policy.

How long is recovery?

Early recovery is commonly days to weeks. Swelling, implant settling, scars and sensory changes can continue for months depending on technique and lifestyle demands.

How much does breast augmentation cost in Adelaide?

Costs vary based on practitioner, anaesthetist, facility, implant type, case complexity, routine aftercare and potential revision needs. Ask for an itemised written quote and compare inclusions.

When should I seek help about existing implants?

If you notice persistent swelling, pain, firmness, a new lump, fluid collection, a sudden shape change or increasing asymmetry, arrange proper assessment rather than waiting.
