After practicing Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery for over 30 years in the Midlands, Dr. Smythe Rich has not only expanded his offices but also increased the procedures offered to include full body plastic and reconstructive surgery. We are honored to have Dr. Kayla Humenansky join our practice. You can expect an unparalleled level of precision, genuine care, and desire to give patients natural-looking results.
“When someone has a positive cosmetic experience, you realize that ‘good work’ walks right by you every day, unnoticed,” Dr. Rich concludes. With the addition of Dr. Humenansky, breast and body procedures are now offered alongside our vast array of facial specialties, such as the WhisperliftTM.
I am proud to be a native South Carolinian, and my family and I enjoy all that the Palmetto State has to offer. As I look back on practicing facial plastic and reconstructive surgery over the years, my greatest joy has been seeing the satisfaction and sometimes happy tears of handing a patient the mirror after surgery. Those special moments make years of training, careful patient consultations, preparing, and executing a procedure all more than worth it. Many of the procedures we performed back in the '90s are still essential because they do exactly what the patient wants: reduce a large nose, slim or tighten a neckline or face, or address tired, baggy eyes. Our field is progressing steadily to provide more comfortable and natural enhancement to one's appearance; lasers and minimally invasive procedures are now well known.
Dr. Humenansky, "Dr. H", is a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon. She is the only private practice female plastic surgeon in the Midlands. She graduated Cum Laude from The Ohio State University with a degree in Microbiology and Spanish. After receiving her medical degree from Via College of Osteopathic Medicine – Carolinas Campus, she went on to pursue general surgery residency in New York and subsequently completed an additional fellowship in plastic and reconstructive surgery in Philadelphia. Dr. H enjoys traveling and participating in mission trips to help the underserved throughout the world. In her spare time, she enjoys hiking, boating, and spending time with her growing family.

Dr. Rich corrected my daughter’s ears when she was 12 years old. She is 21 now and they are still gorgeous. He told me they would not be perfect, but they couln’t get any more perfect! His work far exceeded our expectations, and were life changing for her.
It is a pleasure to simply sit down with Dr. Rich and share a conversation. He has always been honest when referring to what I can afford and realistic when suggesting certain procedures. Simply doing away with a wrinkle between my eyes by a few injections changed my aging self concept. He is a the best and I appreciate his honesty.
Dr. Rich performed my rhinoplasty and chin implant 3 months ago. I was nervous, but I am thrilled with my results! I have so much more confidence now. Dr. Rich listened to what I wanted while sharing his expertise. I'm glad I went for it and I'm so glad that I chose Dr. Rich!
I have nothing but good things to say about the staff and Dr Rich. I am still healing it has only been a week but the ease in which I am recovering is impressive. This does not happen by having”good luck” but skilled people. Thank you to everyone involved.
I visited Dr. Rich today and was super pleased with my visit. His office staff was friendly and helpful. Dr. Rich explained all my options for my surgery as well and made recommendations I had not considered. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for a reliable surgeon
Best plastic surgeon I have ever seen! The Hippocritic Oath, “first do no harm” are words he lives by. My friend was bother by the fat under her neck. She decided she would do something about it so she saw Dr. Rich and told him that she was also undergoing chemotherapy. With eloquent style & grace Dr. Rich helped her to prioritize. She left confident with a smile on her face… ready to conquer the cancer.
I have not actually visited the office but I called regarding my acne scars and the lady who answered the phone was very honest and helpful. I definitely recommend this place as honesty in any procedure comes first. Thank you.
Great experience everytime! Love his personality, the friendliness of the staff, and that he is a perfectionist. Highly recommend!

Dr Rich is an exceptional doctor in every aspect. He takes time to listen, explains in detail and discusses every option possible. His approach to Fillers and Botox is very gentle and thoughtful with a natural look in mind. You will sooner hear "You are not in need of Filler or Botox" instead of the more common push for more procedures. I also have recently had to have a small incision to remove a cyst on my face and Dr Rich's suturing skills are absolutely phenomenal and have left me completely scarless. I highly recommend Dr Rich - he truly is the best here in town!

One fine body…
Dr. Rich is a gem. In July, he corrected my deviated septum and removed a hump in the bridge of my nose and ten years ago, he corrected a lip procedure performed by another Doctor using a different approach that completely changed my appearance. He is personable, highly skilled, explains cause, effect and best approach clearly so that you are informed and he provides options, rather than just pressuring you into the most costly procedure. Trust is key in any surgical procedure and I can easily say that he has mine. If you need corrective or cosmetic surgery, this is the man to go to.
