High-profile Gold Coast cosmetic surgeon Cesido Colagrande has been handed a nine month suspended jail term after being found guilty of the sexual assault of a female patient in May 2015. The Southport District Court jury of six men and six women reached their verdict after deliberating for less than three hours today. Dr Ces — as he is known to his patients — was charged with the sexual assault of a female patient in 2015. The court heard last week Colagrande, 48, is alleged to have pulled the 24-year-old adult entertainer toward him and asked her to have sex with him during a follow-up consultation after a breast augmentation, in May two years ago. He is also alleged to have slapped her on the bottom and told her she had “blow job lips”. Colagrande pleaded not guilty to the charge of sexual assault at the start of the trial last Monday. When he took the stand to give evidence last week, Colagrande denied the assault occurred. The court heard the office walls were thin and there were several patients in the waiting room at the time the doctor allegedly propositioned the woman to have sex in his office.
