Honouring those who reached further

A particularly meaningful moment for Dr Dilip Gahankari, who was invited to deliver the inaugural Dr John Hargrave Lecture at the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons Tristate Annual Scientific Meeting in Darwin.

The lecture was established in honour of Dr John Charles Hargrave AO, MBE, FRACS,
paid tribute to generations of rural surgical pioneers whose work, often across vast distances and with limited resources, demanded ingenuity, adaptability and courage.

For Dr Gahankari, delivering the inaugural lecture was more than an invitation to speak. It was an opportunity to honour a surgical legacy founded on service, teaching, innovation and reaching those with limited access to specialist surgical care.

Even after years of surgical experience, there's no substitute for hands-on learning.

In June, Dr Dilip Gahankari OAM returned to the University of Queensland to participate in an intensive Head & Neck Cadaver Dissection Course, led by the Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery and Skull Base team.

Courses like these provide an invaluable opportunity to revisit complex head and neck anatomy, refine advanced surgical approaches and collaborate with fellow specialists in a multidisciplinary learning environment.

Continuous education and cadaver dissection training play a vital role in maintaining the highest standards of surgical precision and patient safety. It's all part of Dr Gahankari's ongoing commitment to delivering the very best care using the latest knowledge and techniques.

For patients left with loose or excess skin after significant weight loss through medication, surgery or lifestyle change, a body lift can help complete their journey. A body lift is a surgical option that can help remove excess skin and fat, most commonly around the mid-section, waist, thighs and hips.

Like any procedure, it's personal to the individual, and it isn't the right option for everyone, Dr Dilip Gahankari OAM discusses this in detail with every patient during an in-depth consultation.

📖 Learn more about body lift surgery on our website or by booking a consultation with our team on 5539 4611.

Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Individual results vary. A comprehensive consultation and examination process with a qualified practitioner is essential to discuss suitability, risks, benefits, and alternatives.

One of the key themes from this year's Nose by FATS World Congress in Bangkok was achieving beautiful, natural-looking results while preserving or improving nasal function.

Modern rhinoplasty is about far more than appearance. It requires a careful balance between aesthetics, breathing function and long-term structural support. Discussions at the conference covered preservation rhinoplasty, revision surgery and techniques tailored to different facial features and ethnic backgrounds.

By participating in international meetings like this, Dr Dilip Gahankari OAM continues to refine his skills alongside some of the world's leading rhinoplasty surgeons, ensuring patients have access to the latest surgical advances and best-practice care.

We're committed to combining experience, ongoing learning and evidence-based techniques to help every patient achieve results that look natural and function beautifully.

Healthy, radiant skin doesn't happen overnight. It happens with the right combination of treatments.

Broadband Light (BBL) uses advanced light energy to gently heat the upper layers of the skin, helping improve:
• Sun damage
• Pigmentation
• Redness
• Fine lines
• Overall skin tone and texture

Paired with LED Healite, which uses specific wavelengths of therapeutic light to stimulate natural cellular repair and healing, the treatments work together to support healthier-looking skin with minimal downtime.

Many patients also choose treatments like these as part of a comprehensive skin health plan before or after cosmetic procedures, helping optimise skin quality and overall results.

❄️ Experience the benefits with our Winter Skin Treatment Package for just $749 (valued at $1,450). This package is only available until the end of August, with treatments valid for 12 months.

Skin relies on two proteins - collagen and elastin - to stretch and then contract as your body changes shape. When weight loss is gradual, skin often has time to adjust. But after significant or rapid weight loss, skin can lose some of its ability to spring back and that's not a reflection of anything you did or didn't do.

Later this month, our specialist plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr Dilip Gahankari OAM will travel to Darwin to present at the RACS NT, WA & SA Tristate Annual Scientific Meeting 2026, held at the Darwin Convention Centre.

This year's theme, "Outreach & Reaching Out," highlights the unique challenges and rewards of providing surgical care to rural and remote communities across Australia. The programme focuses on outreach services, innovation and the realities of surgical practice in the Top End.

Dr Dilip has long been passionate about improving access to high-quality surgical care for patients living outside metropolitan centres. He is also looking forward to catching up with his close friend and respected colleague, Dr Ravi Mahajani, the RACS NT Chair and meeting convener, whose leadership has helped shape this important event.

Attending and presenting at meetings like these provides valuable opportunities to share knowledge, learn from colleagues and strengthen the collaborative networks that ultimately benefit patients wherever they live.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that uses fine needles to create tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This natural healing response stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which are the building blocks of healthy, youthful-looking skin.

Microneedling may help improve:
✔️ Fine lines and early signs of ageing
✔️ Uneven skin texture
✔️ Mild acne scarring
✔️ Overall skin tone and rejuvenation

It can also be a great way to optimise skin health before or after other aesthetic treatments, or as a non-surgical option for patients who aren't ready for surgery.

📩 Book a no obligation, complimentary consultation with our specialist nurse team to find out if microneedling is right for you on 5539 4611
