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 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.
