Cosmos Aesthetics

What Cosmos Aesthetics does

Cosmos Aesthetics, doing business as Cosmos Clinic, is a privately held Australian cosmetic surgery provider founded in 2007 by Associate Professor Peter Haertsch AM and headquartered in Double Bay, Sydney. The company operates four physical clinics across Australia's eastern seaboard — Sydney (Double Bay), Adelaide (North Adelaide), Canberra (Bruce), and Gold Coast (Southport) — and self-describes as "Australia's largest cosmetic surgery operator." Its clinical practice is built around a core surgical proposition of Vaser (ultrasound-assisted) liposuction, ranging from standard body contouring through Hi-Definition body sculpting to Mega Liposuction (up to 15 litres of fat across multiple surgeries), supplemented by autologous fat transfer procedures including Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) and breast fat transfer, and male chest reduction (gynecomastia) surgery.

The non-surgical arm comprises CoolSculpting cryolipolysis for fat reduction, fractional laser, microneedling and chemical peels for skin rejuvenation, anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers, and emerging modalities such as Ultraformer focused ultrasound and Exomide exosome-based topicals for collagen loss. The supporting technology stack is overwhelmingly medical-device-led, with the only material software integration being the third-party GetTimely booking system; no proprietary software platform, app, or AI/ML capability is in evidence.

Cosmos operates a direct-to-consumer, in-clinic delivery model. Patients book via phone (1300 138 797) or online enquiry and are required to attend one or more consultations with registered health practitioners before any surgical booking, with a mandatory minimum seven-day cooling-off period after the second consultation. Revenue is generated on a one-time/per-procedure basis: liposuction starts at AUD $5,500 for the first area with additional areas from $2,000; non-surgical services and skincare products are sold directly or via three-year gift vouchers; consultation fees vary by practitioner and location (some first consultations complimentary with conditions). The business is wholly privately owned and operated by Associate Professor Peter Haertsch AM, with no public listing, no external equity, and no parent company identified in the source material.
