Non-surgical Surgical

Charleston's surgical market has expanded with the region's growth, and the highest-rated practices below sit in the Nexton and Mount Pleasant developments rather than the historic peninsula, which is where much of the Lowcountry's newer medical infrastructure has landed. Review volumes here are strong for a market this size, suggesting practices with long local track records. Regional pricing runs under Atlanta and Charlotte. Rankings use real Google rating weighted by review volume. As always, American Board of Plastic Surgery certification and an accredited surgical facility are worth confirming yourself, whatever the consultation experience suggests.

Across the 10 practices we track in Charleston, the widest procedure coverage is liposuction (7 surgeons), blepharoplasty (6 surgeons), and rhinoplasty (6 surgeons), which typically runs $3,500–$11,000 locally. Together they hold 3,267 Google reviews at an average of 4.8 stars.

Considering something non-surgical first? Compare the two sides on our CoolSculpting versus liposuction and Morpheus8 versus facelift guides, or browse med spas in Charleston.

Liposuction of the abdomen, flanks, or thighs with transfer of that fat to the buttocks, and the cosmetic operation that demands the most careful surgeon selection of any procedure we list.

Typical cost $8,000–$18,000

Learn more →

Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Facial Fat Transfer

A procedure that takes fat from your own body, purifies it, and injects it into the face to restore lost volume in the cheeks, temples, under the eyes, and lips. Permanent for the fat that survives, natural because it is your own tissue, and often done alongside a facelift.

Typical cost $3,500–$8,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Arm Lift

Surgery that removes the loose, hanging skin on the upper arm that follows major weight loss or aging, usually with liposuction of any remaining fat, through an incision along the inner arm. The only fix for skin that hangs; the trade is a scar most people consider worth it.

Typical cost $5,000–$10,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Thigh Lift

Surgery that removes loose, sagging skin from the inner or outer thigh, most often after major weight loss, restoring a firm contour. An inner thigh lift hides its incision in the groin crease; a more extensive lift extends down the inner thigh. The only fix for thigh skin that hangs.

Typical cost $6,000–$12,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Body Lift

A single operation that removes loose skin around the entire lower body, the abdomen, hips, outer thighs, and buttocks, through an incision that circles the waist like a belt. The definitive contouring procedure after massive weight loss, with a recovery to match.

Typical cost $12,000–$25,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Lip Lift

A short surgery that removes a strip of skin just under the nose to shorten the space between nose and lip, rolling the upper lip outward so more pink lip shows and the mouth looks fuller and younger at rest. Permanent, and the fix for a long upper lip that filler makes worse.

Typical cost $3,000–$6,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Earlobe Repair

A quick in-office procedure that repairs an earlobe torn by an earring, closes a stretched piercing or a gauge, or reduces an earlobe that has lengthened with age. Local anesthesia, about thirty minutes per ear, and the lobe can be re-pierced after it heals.

Typical cost $400–$1,200
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Lipo 360

Liposuction of the whole midsection in one operation, abdomen, flanks, waist and back treated as a single shape rather than separate zones, often with high-definition sculpting of the abdominal lines. The most searched liposuction procedure in the US, and the one where volume, BMI and skin quality decide the result.

Typical cost $7,000–$15,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Breast Implant Removal

Also called Explant

Surgery to take out breast implants, with or without the scar capsule around them, and with or without a lift or replacement. Done for rupture, capsular contracture, a change of mind, the rare implant-associated lymphoma, or the systemic symptoms some women report; what the evidence says about each reason is different, and this page separates them.

Typical cost $5,000–$15,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Chin Liposuction

Also called Submental Liposuction

A short procedure, usually under local anesthesia, that removes the fat under the chin and along the jawline through incisions a few millimetres long, defining the jaw in one session with results that are permanent at a stable weight. The right choice when the problem is fat and the skin is firm; a neck lift when it is loose skin or muscle bands.

Typical cost $2,500–$6,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Chin Implant

Also called Chin Augmentation

Surgery that projects a recessed chin either by placing a shaped silicone implant on the bone or by cutting and sliding the chin bone forward (genioplasty), permanently balancing the profile with the nose and neck. The two methods suit different chins and carry different risks, and this page separates them.

Typical cost $4,000–$12,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Revision Rhinoplasty

Also called Secondary Rhinoplasty

Surgery to correct the result of a previous rhinoplasty, whether the problem is appearance (a pinched tip, a collapsed or over-resected bridge, asymmetry) or breathing. Harder than the first operation because of scar tissue and missing cartilage, usually needing grafts from the ear or rib, and best done by a surgeon who does it routinely, at least a year after the original.

Typical cost $12,000–$30,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Scar Revision

Also called Scar Revision Surgery

Surgery and in-office treatments that make a scar less visible: excision and layered re-closure for wide or raised scars, Z-plasty or W-plasty to redirect a scar into natural lines or release a tight one, steroid injections for raised scars, and filler, laser or dermabrasion for surface problems. A scar cannot be erased, and the plan depends on which kind of scar it is.

Typical cost $500–$6,000
Learn more →
Cosmetic Surgery

Breast Fat Transfer

Also called Natural Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation with your own fat: liposuction takes it from the abdomen, flanks or thighs, it is purified, and it is injected into the breasts in layers for a modest, natural increase of about a cup size with no implant. Some of the fat is reabsorbed, so surgeons overfill, and the result depends on having enough fat to give.

Typical cost $6,000–$14,000

FAQ

Plastic surgery in Charleston, answered

How many plastic surgery practices are there in Charleston?

We track 10 practices in Charleston, South Carolina, each with a public Google rating and at least 25 reviews. Crantford Costa Plastic Surgery currently holds the highest rating-weighted score. Listings are editorial and never paid.

What should I check before booking a consultation in Charleston?

Three things, in this order. Certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, or Royal College certification (FRCSC) in Canada. Whether the operating facility is accredited, or the surgeon holds hospital privileges for your exact procedure. And how many of that specific operation the surgeon performs each year. A reputable practice answers all three without hesitation.

Which procedures do Charleston surgeons perform?

Across the practices we track in Charleston, the procedures with local coverage are Blepharoplasty, Rhinoplasty, Breast Augmentation, Liposuction, Tummy Tuck, Facelift, Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), Breast Lift, Breast Reduction, Mommy Makeover, Otoplasty, Labiaplasty, Neck Lift, Brow Lift, Gynecomastia Surgery, Hair Transplant, Facial Fat Transfer, Arm Lift, Thigh Lift, Body Lift, Lip Lift, Earlobe Repair, Lipo 360, Breast Implant Removal, Chin Liposuction, Chin Implant, Revision Rhinoplasty, Scar Revision, Breast Fat Transfer. Each links to local cost ranges and the surgeons who perform it.

Is a med spa the same as a plastic surgery practice?

No. Med spas deliver non-surgical treatments such as injectables, lasers and skin therapies, usually under a supervising physician. Plastic surgery practices are led by surgeons who operate. Some concerns can be addressed either way, and the honest answer depends on your anatomy. If you are weighing the two, our comparison guides cover exactly that decision.
