What to Expect After You Contact Us
Once we receive your enquiry, it will be acknowledged promptly. Our staff will guide you through the next steps, including consultation booking and, if relevant, information on referrals and Medicare rebates. A GP referral is recommended to access Medicare rebates and understanding your medical history - you can still contact us without one and our team can navigate the consultation process. If your matter is urgent, such as a suspected skin cancer or trauma, we prioritise your review and can arrange appointments quickly.

Procedures Performed
Dr Harish provides a wide range of specialist plastic, reconstructive and burns procedures through his Sydney North Shore clinic in St Leonards, including:
Surgery to remove excess abdominal skin and repair rectus diastasis (muscle separation) after pregnancy or weight change, aiming to improve abdominal tone and contour. Medicare criteria may apply for muscle repair
360-degree body lift removing excess skin after significant weight loss from surgery or medications (e.g., Ozempic or Wegovy), addressing the abdomen, flanks, lower back, buttocks and outer thighs, and helping to improve comfort, clothing fit and overall body contour
Breast reduction surgery to remove excess breast tissue and skin, which may help ease neck, shoulder and back discomfort, improve day-to-day comfort, aiming for a breast size that better suits your frame
Skin cancer surgery for BCC, SCC and melanoma, including diagnosis, excision with appropriate margins, and reconstructive techniques such as primary closure, skin grafts or local flaps for the face and body
Surgical and non-surgical treatment for hypertrophic, keloid, burn and C-section scars, including excision, tissue rearrangement, grafts, flaps and adjunctive therapies aiming to improve comfort, movement or appearance
Specialist management of facial fractures involving the jaw, cheekbone, eye socket or nose, with surgery performed to realign and stabilise broken bones and support facial structure and function after injury
Reconstruction for open fractures, bone infection (osteomyelitis), exposed implants, soft-tissue loss and complex wounds of the leg, ankle and foot, using orthoplastic techniques with the goal of stabilising, repairing and supporting limb function
Removal of common skin lumps including moles, epidermoid (sebaceous) cysts, lipomas and skin tags, with pathology testing and a reconstructive approach to wound closure and scar placement
Some procedures may attract Medicare rebates if criteria are met — for example, tummy tuck with rectus diastasis repair (30175), body lift/belt lipectomy (30179) and breast reduction (45523).
