MANDATORY<br />

COOLING-OFF<br />

PERIOD<br />

There must be a cooling- off period of at<br />

least seven days after the patient has had two<br />

consultations and given informed consent<br />

(signed consent forms), before the surgery can<br />

be booked or a deposit paid.<br />

For patients under 18, there must be a<br />

cooling-off period of at least three months<br />

between the provision of informed consent and<br />

surgery being performed. The patient should<br />

be encouraged to discuss why they want to<br />

have the surgery with their GP during the<br />

cooling- off period.<br />

There is no cooling-off period with nonsurgical<br />

cosmetic procedures (which may<br />

pierce the skin but don’t cut beneath it, such as<br />

injectables, thread lifts and laser treatments),<br />

unless the patient is under the age of 18.<br />

PRACTITIONERS SHOULD TAKE ALL PRACTICAL<br />

STEPS TO PROVIDE INFORMATION IN A LANGUAGE<br />

UNDERSTOOD BY THE PATIENT AND IN A WAY THAT<br />

DOES NOT GLAMORISE COSMETIC PROCEDURES,<br />

MINIMISE THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROCEDURE OR<br />

OVERSTATE LIKELY RESULTS.<br />
