The 10 Best Plastic Surgeons in Columbia (2026)

Columbia's surgeons work in a tight downtown radius, with the Laurel and Richland Street practices, Rich & Humenansky and Dr. Gregory Sexton among them, minutes from the West Columbia offices of Dr. Carlin and Lefkowitz Plastic Surgery across the river. Breast augmentation is the market's deepest procedure at seven of ten providers, with tummy tucks and liposuction at six. Sono Bello adds chain body-contouring capacity downtown, a standardized-pricing model worth understanding against the independents' custom plans. The 949 reviews average 4.78, honest for a market this competitive. Verify American Board of Plastic Surgery certification and ask about revision policy before paying a deposit.

How we ranked these: by public Google rating weighted by review volume (a Bayesian average), as of 2026. This list is editorial and not influenced by payment. Always confirm current credentials, availability, and pricing directly with each practice.

How to vet a plastic surgeon

Three checks before any consultation deposit: certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (in Canada, Royal College certification, FRCSC), surgery performed in an accredited facility, and a direct answer to "how many of my exact procedure do you perform each year?" A reputable surgeon welcomes all three questions. Be cautious with heavy discounting and package deals: surgery is the wrong purchase to optimize on price.
