Male Surgery
Increasingly, men are utilising surgical and non-surgical treatments for both the face and body. Advanced Aesthetics offers a selection of male treatments and procedures tailored to teach patient. Dr Dilip Gahankari is a highly experienced plastic surgeon who offers a range of different procedures for men.
Body Lift
Factors such as extreme weight loss can result in sagging skin and fat deposits in body areas such as the mid-section, lower torso and upper legs, as well as the abdomen, waist, inner/outer thighs, buttocks, and/or hips. A body lift procedure is designed to remove excess skin and fat.
A body lift procedure varies with each patient, depending on the patient’s body type, skin type, desired outcome and other factors. Results and recovery will also vary for each patient. Typically a body lift procedure entails creating an incision that follows the upper and/or inner thigh to the waistline. In more extensive surgeries, the incision may run around the waist and lower back. Adjustments to the buttocks and thighs require an incision to be made at the crease of the buttocks.
During the procedure, following the incisions, excess skin is removed, as are excess, underlying fat deposits. Finally, the skin is pulled taught and sutured into the new position.
Liposuction may also be used in conjunction with a body lift.
A body lift is an extensive and significant surgery. This surgery is tailored by Dr Gahankari to each patient, and as such the surgery, recovery and results will vary from patient to patient. This surgery is designed to remove sagging skin and excess fat deposits.
Patients who have undergone this significant surgery require plenty of rest and limited movement to recover. The scars resulting from the incisions are permanent. While they typically fade over time, the scars will typically always be visible.
Breast Reduction / Gynecomastia
Large breasts can have a significant impact on some men. The weight of the breasts can impact on the shoulders, neck, and back. Large male breasts can also have an impact on self-esteem and the ability to do certain physical activities. A breast reduction, also known as gynecomastia surgery, is designed to reduce the size of the breast.
Each procedure will be tailored to the individual patient, and results and recovery times will vary from patient to patient. The gynecomastia procedure typically involves the removal of excess fat, tissue and skin, reducing the size and reshaping the breasts. There are a variety of surgical techniques for the male breast reduction procedure. Dr Gahankari will assess your needs during your initial consultation and determine the most appropriate technique for you.
Dr Gahankari typically also uses liposculpturing during the procedure to further refine the resulting size and shape.
Each surgery will be tailored to the individual patient, and results will vary. The surgery will result in the immediate reduction of the breasts.
Bandages are typically applied following surgery to aid the healing process and minimise the movement of the breasts.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is designed to remove unwanted hair.
Different skin types (lighter skin, darker skin, sensitive skin etc) require different machines. Advanced Aesthetics uses BBL and ND Yag 1064 laser machines for hair removal. Your Advanced Aesthetics laser technician can advise on which machine will achieve your desired hair removal results most effectively.
Results will vary for each client and are determined by a variety of factors such as skin type and hair type. Regardless of which machine is used, you can expect to require between 6 and 10 treatments at 4 to 6 weekly intervals. After the completion of your treatments, the hair will typically be removed permanently, however this will vary for each client.
