Influencer Agreement Template for Higher Risk Non-Surgical Cosmetic Procedures
Lawyer-drafted by Social Law Co, the affiliated Australian law firm founded by Tegan Boorman, who leads the AiMCO Industry Advisory Council, the body that helps set influencer marketing best-practice standards in Australia. A purpose built Australian template, not a generic free form.
The influencer agreement for cosmetic clinics offering cosmetic injectables, thread lifts, sclerotherapy, hair transplants, dental veneers and similar procedures. It is built around AHPRA's Guidelines for advertising higher risk non-surgical cosmetic procedures, which took effect on 2 September 2025, and the TGA's rules on prescription medicines.

How it works
Who this template is for
- •Cosmetic clinics and practices offering cosmetic injectables, thread lifts, injection lipolysis, sclerotherapy, PRP, hair transplants or dental veneers.
- •Practices such as dental or GP practices that offer higher risk non-surgical cosmetic procedures alongside other services, including for campaigns about those other services.
- •Registered nurses, dentists and doctors who perform these procedures and work with creators.
- •Agencies running campaigns for cosmetic clinics that want an agreement built around AHPRA's 2025 guidelines. The agreement is drafted to be signed directly between the brand and the influencer, so the agency can prepare it on the brand's behalf but is not a party to it.
- •Influencers and content creators asked to promote a cosmetic clinic or practitioner.
What it is
A one-off influencer agreement for advertising a higher risk non-surgical cosmetic procedure. It is built around AHPRA's guidelines for these procedures and the TGA's rules on prescription medicines, which commonly apply to cosmetic injectables. The template places significant restrictions on the content, including on testimonials, treatment and results imagery and references to medicines, and prohibits free or discounted treatment for the influencer. Built the Social Law Docs way: Part A is a fill-in schedule, Part B holds the plain English terms, and annexures cover the talent release, brand guidelines and the higher-risk procedure requirements.
What's inside
- •Higher-risk procedure requirements (Annexure C): a dedicated checklist covering practitioner registration details and neutral descriptions of experience; risk and recovery information in every post; image rules, under 18 restrictions and adult content settings at post and account level; and no trivialising language, no body-image pressure and no inducements.
- •Covers your other services too: feature facials, skin treatments or other health services you offer alongside your higher risk procedures, with the same rules applying to all content.
- •Restricted Medicine controls: no references to prescription-only medicines, including terms like "anti-wrinkle", "lip injections" and "BTX", hashtags, images of syringes or vials, or before and after images implying a medicine was used.
- •Guided Part A fields: prompts for the procedure, practitioner registration details, risk and recovery information, and other services featured.
- •No testimonials or personal experience: including controls on comments, tags, mentions, reviews and the influencer's earlier posts.
- •No free treatment, inducements or commissions: reflecting AHPRA's bans on free or discounted procedures for influencers, commissions for recruiting patients, discounts, bundles and financing promotions. The influencer is paid a fixed fee.
- •Platform settings covered: branded content tools, age restrictions and comment, tagging and review settings, with evidence after posting.
- •Patient image consent: separate consent, the right to withdraw, and what happens to the Brand's usage rights and the fee if the influencer is also a patient.
- •Shared responsibility done properly: the Brand approves content, both parties acknowledge they may be liable, and unapproved posts sit outside the liability cap.
- •Built for changing rules: the template provides that if a law, code, guideline or platform policy changes, the updated requirement applies instead, so the agreement doesn't lock the parties into outdated rules. You still need to check the current rules for each campaign.

FAQ
Is this legal advice?
No. Social Law Docs sells templates only and is not a law firm. Buying a template does not create a lawyer and client relationship. If you want advice, Social Law Co can help under its own terms of engagement.
Who drafted it?
Social Law Co, the affiliated Australian law firm founded by Tegan Boorman, who leads the AiMCO Industry Advisory Council.
What is it?
A one-off influencer agreement for advertising higher risk non-surgical cosmetic procedures, built around AHPRA's 2025 guidelines and the TGA's prescription medicine rules.
Our clinic offers injectables and facials. Which template should we use?
The Higher Risk Non-Surgical Cosmetic Procedures template is designed for any clinic that offers injectables or other higher risk non-surgical cosmetic procedures, including campaigns about facials or other services.
Our practice offers cosmetic surgery and other services. Which template should we use?
The Cosmetic Surgery template is designed for any practice that offers cosmetic surgery, including campaigns about its non-surgical cosmetic procedures, skin treatments or other services.
Which of our health templates should I choose?
This guide is about choosing a template. It isn't a statement of what the law requires for any particular campaign. The choice depends on what your business offers, not on what a particular campaign is about. If your business offers cosmetic surgery (with or without other services), the Cosmetic Surgery template is designed for all of your campaigns, including campaigns about your other services. If your business offers higher risk non-surgical cosmetic procedures, such as cosmetic injectables or dental veneers, but not cosmetic surgery, the Higher Risk Non-Surgical Cosmetic Procedures template is designed for all of your campaigns, including campaigns about your other services. If your business offers neither, the Regulated Health Services template is designed for your campaigns about regulated health services. If your campaign is only about a therapeutic good, and your business doesn't provide a regulated health service, our Therapeutic Goods template is designed for that. For example, a dental practice that offers veneers would use the Higher Risk Non-Surgical Cosmetic Procedures template even for a campaign about check-ups, and all of its campaigns would be subject to that template's restrictions, including adult-only content.
Can the influencer mention Botox or fillers?
No. Under the template, the content must not name or indirectly refer to prescription-only medicines, including through brand names, nicknames and class terms like "anti-wrinkle" or "lip filler". The template gives examples of terms that aren't permitted under it.
Can the influencer show their own results?
No. The template prohibits the influencer from describing or showing any treatment they have had, or its results.
Can we pay the influencer per booking or give them an affiliate code?
No. The template requires a fixed fee and prohibits commissions, per-booking payments and affiliate links or codes.
Can we pay the influencer in free treatment or products?
The template doesn't allow free or discounted treatment as payment, but it does allow some products. Under the template, free or discounted procedures or other treatment, including facials or other skin treatments, aren't included in the payment options; prescription or pharmacist-only medicines aren't included; and other products, such as aftercare or skincare products, can form part of the payment if the brand can lawfully supply them. They're recorded in Part A with their value, and the template limits the influencer to endorsing (not reviewing) any therapeutic goods they receive.
Which platforms can the influencer post on?
The template lets you list the platforms in Part A. It makes the Brand responsible for choosing platforms whose branded content policies permit the campaign, and requires both parties to follow each platform's policies as they stand at the time.
Can I edit it in Word?
Yes. It is a Word document you download instantly after checkout. Fill in the shaded Part A fields. Prompts guide each field.
Is it a subscription?
No. It is a one-off payment of $1,299 AUD.
What should I check before I buy?
The template contains significant restrictions on what the content can include. Read the description above carefully to make sure they suit your plans. Using the template doesn't guarantee that a campaign complies. The content of each campaign still needs to be checked against the rules that apply at the time. The template requires content to be restricted to adults, using age settings at post and account level where the platform offers them. In practice, the influencer may need to restrict their whole account to people aged 18 and over during the campaign.
When should I use a different template?
Don't use this template: for cosmetic surgery, or for a business that offers cosmetic surgery (even for campaigns about its other services); for a business that doesn't offer higher risk non-surgical cosmetic procedures; for a campaign that needs to name a prescription medicine; with legal employees; or if your plans don't match the description.
What problems can it help you avoid?
Unlawful prescription medicine advertising; testimonial breaches; higher-risk procedure breaches under AHPRA's 2025 guidelines; platform takedowns; and disclosure breaches under the AANA Code and the ACL.
