In Australia, many cosmetic injectable treatments are classified as Schedule 4 prescription-only medicine and are regulated by the TGA, Ahpra, and QLD Health.
Under these new regulations, clinics cannot publicly advertise injectable pricing, promotional offers, before & after images, or product-specific information relating to prescription-only treatments.

Volumising treatments are an gel-like substance used to restore volume, support facial structures, and improve the appearance of lines or contour irregularities. Most commonly used products are composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring polysaccharide found within the skin and connective tissues that helps maintain hydration and structural support.
Following injection, the filler integrates within the tissue and attracts water molecules due to the hydrophilic properties of hyaluronic acid. This provides volume, hydration, and structural support to the treated area.
As these are medical treatments, a comprehensive consultation is required to assess suitability, anatomy, contraindications, risks, and expected outcomes.

At our clinic, patient safety, ethical practice, and regulatory compliance are at the centre of everything we do.
In Queensland and throughout Australia, cosmetic injectable treatments are governed by strict advertising regulations set by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (Ahpra), and Queensland Health.
Many cosmetic injectable products are classified as Schedule 4 prescription only medicines.
Under Australian law, prescription medications cannot be advertised directly to the public. This means clinics are restricted from promoting injectable treatments in ways that may encourage or influence consumers to seek prescription-only products.
As part of these regulations, clinics are unable to publicly advertise:
Injectable treatment pricing or promotional offers
Before and after images that imply prescription-only injectable outcomes
Brand names or product-specific advertising
Content that may create unrealistic expectations of results
These guidelines are designed to protect patients by ensuring treatment decisions are made through an appropriate medical consultation, rather than through advertising or social media marketing. Every face, skin type, and treatment plan is different, and a personalised consultation allows our qualified practitioners to assess your concerns, discuss suitability, explain potential risks and benefits, and create an individualised treatment approach tailored to you.
If you would like to learn more about treatment options, we invite you to book a private consultation with our experienced clinical team.
During your consultation, we can discuss your goals, suitability, expected outcomes, and provide a personalised treatment plan and pricing information in accordance with current Australian regulations.
