Is a "cosmetic surgeon" the same as a "plastic surgeon" in Australia?
No. "Plastic surgeon" is a protected medical specialty requiring 12+ years of training and FRACS qualification. "Cosmetic surgeon" was an unregulated title that anyone with a basic medical degree could use. Since 2023 Medical Board reforms, only FRACS-qualified specialists can use protected titles. If a doctor calls themselves a "cosmetic surgeon" but isn't FRACS qualified, they have substantially less training in surgical safety, complication management, and reconstructive techniques.
How do I verify a plastic surgeon's qualifications?
Search the AHPRA register at ahpra.gov.au — type their name and check their specialty registration shows "Specialist Plastic Surgery". Also check the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons directory (plasticsurgery.org.au) which only lists FRACS members. Verify their hospital privileges (legitimate plastic surgeons operate at accredited hospitals, not just office-based clinics). Check Australian regulators, not international ones — overseas qualifications don't automatically translate to Australian standards.
What's the cooling-off period?
Following 2023 Medical Board of Australia reforms, all cosmetic surgery patients must observe a mandatory 7-day cooling-off period between consultation and booking surgery (or 3 months for under-18s). This applies whether you see a plastic surgeon or a cosmetic doctor. Patients also must receive a referral from their GP for cosmetic procedures. These rules exist to prevent high-pressure sales tactics that were common in the cosmetic surgery industry.
