Getting back into your country after Surgery

[perpetuallytired]

So I live in Australia, where the primary method of biometric data used is facial. Entry into the country for citizens is basically automated where they scan your face and compare it to your passports. They don't even have fingerprints on file for most citizens.

So when you get surgery overseas, how the fuck do you get back in. Will I get picked up at the airport. Should I get a letter from the surgeons. Should I approach dfat (people responsible for passports) beforehand and tell them that I'm planning to completely change my face.

What surgery are you planning on getting? Is it major like bimax or something smaller like rhino. If it's rhino or something similar you'll probably be fine.

Jesus. I'd probably talk to DFAT then. Hit me up if they give you an answer.
