1. Important Notice (Summary Only)

This summary highlights key terms only. It does not replace the full Terms & Conditions and does not limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL).

• Right to cancel prior to supply: We may decline, cancel or require to reschedule a booking before supply (e.g., staff availability, equipment issues). If we have to proceed to decline, cancel or reschedule, we will either refund amounts paid for the cancelled service, or reallocate held funds to an alternative date appointment for the same service subject to these Terms.
• Third-party platforms & your information: We use third-party booking/payment/communications tools (“Third Party Software”). To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for unavailability, delay, error or loss caused by Third Party Software, or by inaccurate/incomplete information you provide.
• Liability cap & no consequential loss: Subject to non-excludable law, our aggregate liability relating to any product/service is capped at the amount you paid for that product/service, and we exclude Consequential Loss.
• Cosmetic nature & regulatory status: We make no therapeutic claims for our cosmetic HIFU services. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease. Our HIFU equipment is fully TGA APPROVED and listed on the ARTG.
• Force Majeure & your acts/omissions: We are not liable where loss/delay arises from a Force Majeure Event or your acts/omissions (e.g., not following pre/post-care; not disclosing relevant health information).
• Amendments: We may amend these Terms by publishing updated terms on our website; changes take effect on publication unless stated otherwise.
• ACL preserved: Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any rights, remedies or guarantees you have under the ACL. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the minimum extent permitted by law.

5.1 Bookings & Provisional bookings. A booking request reserves a provisional time only.5.2 Deposit to confirm. A 50% deposit of the quoted price (the “Deposit”) is required to confirm your booking. This is non refundable, (governed by clause 7 and the ACL). We will issue a confirmation once the Deposit is received; until then, we may release the timeslot.5.3 Deposit timing.(a) If your appointment is >48 hours away, pay the Deposit within 48 hours of the booking request (via the secure link we send).(b) If your appointment is ≤48 hours away, the Deposit is due at the time of booking.(c) If not received on time, the booking lapses and may be offered to others; we will assist with rescheduling if you wish to proceed.5.4 Application & refunds. The Deposit is applied to the appointment price. Deposit refunds/credits are governed by clause 7 and the ACL. If we cancel before supply for reasons within our control, we refund the Deposit in full (or apply the deposit to a new time, if you prefer, (reschedule)). If you for any reason after making a booking with us cancel your appointment whether it has been confirmed by our system with or without a written confirmation, you forfeit the deposit paid. If you request a reschedule outside of 24 hours prior to the booking date and time then you do not forfeit the deposit payment and the deposit is moved to the new scheduled appointment time.5.5 Pre-appointment forms. You must complete our service-specific consultation form accurately and in full and provide any information we reasonably require (medical history, medications, implanted devices, allergies, skincare use, conditions). We may decline, modify or defer a service where forms are incomplete/inaccurate, indicate a contraindication, or where reasonably necessary for safety.5.6 Reminders & communications. Confirmations and reminders by SMS/email are a courtesy only. By booking, you consent to transactional communications (confirmations, reminders, forms). You may opt out of marketing messages at any time; operational messages are necessary to administer your booking.

Individual responses vary; before/after imagery is illustrative only.

If a session is cut short due to our equipment failure, we will reschedule/complete the remaining component at our cost or, where required by the ACL, provide an appropriate credit/refund for the unused portion.8.5 Products (skincare, personal care, supplements). For a minor failure, we may repair or replace within a reasonable time; for a major failure, you may choose a replacement or refund. We may need to inspect/assess (including with the manufacturer) to determine cause; where a consumer-guarantee remedy applies, we cover your reasonable return costs.8.6 Exclusions.
