CONSULTATIONS

All individuals seeking cosmetic surgery with Dr Senthil Supramaniam must obtain a referral before booking an appointment. The referring medical practitioner must be independent from Dr Senthil Supramaniam's clinic and should not engage in cosmetic surgery or non-surgical cosmetic procedures themselves.

Our consultations are held at our non-surgical clinic at Norwest Cosmetic Surgery. We consult from the following locations:

Suite C201, Level 2, Building C
Norwest Private Hospital
9 Norbrik Drive Bella Vista NSW 2153

16 Vernon Street Woollahra, NSW 2025

Bankstown Hospital Medical Centre, Suite 102, 68 Eldridge Road, Bankstown, NSW 2200.

For patients seeking cosmetic surgery, a minimum of two consultations is mandatory before confirming a surgery date. During these consultations, Dr Senthil Supramaniam will evaluate you for any underlying psychological conditions, such as body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), that may make you an unsuitable candidate for cosmetic surgery.

The cost for an initial surgical consultation is $150, payable at the time of booking to secure your preferred appointment slot. Please note that the initial consultation fee is non-refundable, and rescheduling requires a minimum of 48 hours' notice. The $150 booking fee covers both the first and second consultations and may be eligible for a Medicare rebate. If you decide to proceed with the surgery within 12 months of receiving the quote, this consultation fee will be deducted from the total surgery cost.
