Butter policies.

All content on the Butter Cosmetic + Skin Clinic website is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Individual results may vary. All medical procedures involve risks. Before proceeding with a cosmetic treatment, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.

Each patient must undertake a medical consultation with the treating nurse and prescribing doctor to determine suitability for treatment. The treating nurse has the right to refuse treatments when patients are not appropriate. Cosmetic injectable treatments are contraindicated in women who are pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive.

Our appointments are precious. We respectfully request 48 hours’ notice when cancelling or rescheduling your appointment. If you have a scheduled appointment, you will receive an email reminder three days prior to your appointment and an SMS reminder two days prior your appointment. This reminder is a courtesy and does not remove your responsibility for keeping appointments once you have made them.

Your credit card details will be requested and stored securely when making a booking. Missed appointments will incur a $150 fee, which will be charged to your credit card. If you cancel or reschedule your appointment within 48 hours of the booking time or arrive more than 15 minutes late to your appointment, this fee will also apply.

Thank you for ensuring that other patients have the opportunity to book an appointment when you are no longer able to make your appointment time. We are always understanding of extenuating circumstances and encourage you to call us on +61 409 838 040 or email us at info@buttercosmeticandskin.com.au with any questions regarding our booking policy.
