For over 20 years, Dr Dilip Gahankari has dedicated part of his Christmas break to providing reconstructive surgery and medical support to underserved communities in India.

Travelling to remote regions where access to specialist surgical care can be limited, Dr Dilip works alongside teams of surgeons, nurses and healthcare professionals to help patients living with burns, congenital conditions, trauma and other complex reconstructive needs.

This work is deeply important to Dr Dilip and reflects a long-standing commitment to helping improve access to care for those who may otherwise go without.

We’re proud to share that this humanitarian work is now being documented in Syndemic, is featured in a documentary exploring the global disparities in access to surgical care and the life-changing impact of medical aid programs. Filmmaker Woodrow Wilson first documented Dr Dilip’s work in rural India in 2015, beginning a journey to tell the stories of patients, clinicians and communities affected by limited access to surgery.

We are deeply honoured to share that Dr Dilip has been awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia in recognition of nearly two decades of plastic and reconstructive surgical work alongside a devoted team of volunteers and the two thousand patients whose lives were changed because they kept coming back.

In his own words:
“I am grateful and deeply humbled. The people who deserve this alongside me have been on the plane with me every Christmas, in villages most people wouldn’t find on a map. From a small town in India to a practice on the Gold Coast, I have never walked that road alone. This award belongs to every one of them.” - Dr Dilip

In Australia the terms “cosmetic surgeon” and “plastic surgeon” are not interchangeable.

A Specialist Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon has completed extensive specialist surgical training through accredited medical and surgical colleges, including years of hospital-based training and examination before receiving specialist registration.

At Advanced Aesthetics, our team approach combines surgical expertise with experienced Registered Nurses and non-surgical treatment options, allowing patients to receive comprehensive care and tailored treatment recommendations.

Choosing a qualified practitioner is an important part of any aesthetic journey, and patients should feel informed, supported and educated throughout the consultation process.

Breast implant replacement surgery may be considered for a range of reasons, including changes in implant position, capsular contracture, implant rupture, aesthetic concerns, or personal preference over time.

As with any medical procedure, breast implants are not considered lifetime devices and ongoing monitoring is important. Decisions around implant replacement are highly individual and should involve a comprehensive consultation with a qualified practitioner.

Risks associated with implant replacement surgery can include infection, bleeding, scarring, asymmetry, implant-related complications and the potential need for further surgery in the future.

At Advanced Aesthetics, we believe informed decision-making and patient education are an important part of every surgical journey.

Bilateral Lipo-abdominoplasty and bilateral breast reduction, 7 months after surgery.

Dr Dilip Gahankari specialises in tailoring surgery to meet an individual’s goals and this often involves combining procedures within a single surgery. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) removes excess skin and may tighten abdominal muscles. Risks include scarring, seroma and wound complications. Liposculpture is commonly used in conjunction with abdominoplasty by Dr Gahankari. Liposculpture reshapes contours by removing excess fat. Risks include contour irregularities, infection and scarring. Breast reduction surgery removes excess tissue and skin to ease physical symptoms such as back or neck pain, improving the patient’s quality of life. Risks include scarring, altered sensation, and wound healing issues.

A comprehensive consultation and examination process with a qualified practitioner is essential to discuss suitability, risks, benefits, and alternatives. Each individual is unique and results will vary due to many factors including genetics, age, lifestyle, exercise and recovery. Images shown here are only reflective of this patient’s outcome.
