If you're a new patient to Dr Jake
The world of facial aesthetics is incredibly confusing - there's a lot of conflicting information on social media and online.
Patients often come to see Dr Jake anxious about what they've read or heard, worried about looking strange after a treatment or scared of the rare side effects. He understands this and will be completely honest in your consultation to help guide you.
New patient consultations are 60 minutes. This allows for plenty of time to talk, to have clinical photos taken and for a treatment plan to be designed without rushing. If you're comfortable on the day, an initial treatment may be performed assuming that you are medically fit and time allows.

Over the past two years things have changed a lot for how cosmetic doctors can use social media. So sadly, you won't be able to see any of the following on Dr Jake's social media or this website:
- before and after images
- prices for what treatments might cost
- any explicit mentioning of the types of treatments he offers (except Rejuran which is not classified as a medicine)
This type of marketing are now illegal in Australia as per the TGA guidelines. (If you see clinics doing this, they are breaking the law and should be reported to the TGA via this pathway)
Important news: new regulatory & advertising guidelines
Two of the main regulators (AHPRA and the TGA) have applied stricter rules around how cosmetic clinics can advertise
From March 7th 2024 it was clarified that some previously accepted methods of communicating with patients and marketing are now illegal. There are three main changes that are now reflected on this website, Dr Jake's social media & when speaking to Dr Jake's clinic staff via phone or email:
1) Advertising prices of treatments is no longer allowed
Clinic aren't quote prices over the phone, list prices on their website or send quotes by email or private messages on social media. Instead, pricing and quotes can only be done within the context of a consultation as this will be bespoke for your own needs.
2) Listing specific treatments is no longer allowed
Clinics are now not allowed to list specific areas or treatments. (This helps ensure that patients are consulted holistically)
New patients wanting consultations with Dr Jake have two simple consultation options:
i) 'New patient consultation without a treatment on the day' (30 mins)
ii) 'New patient consultation + a treatment on the day if appropriate' (60 mins)
3) Before and after images
These have traditionally been used by practitioners to help illustrate what treatments can do and look like. They can still be shown in the privacy of a consultation but are now not allowed to be used for marketing or on social media.
