Precisely remove stubborn fat deposits and sculpt a more defined physique with Dr. Clayton Crantford’s advanced liposuction techniques and ERAS Rapid Recovery program in downtown Charleston, SC.
SCHEDULE YOUR CONSULTATION or call (843) 755-6591Liposuction is a surgical procedure that precisely removes unwanted fat deposits from specific areas of the body to create a more contoured, defined silhouette. Unlike diet and exercise, which can be ineffective for certain stubborn fat pockets, liposuction allows board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Clayton Crantford to sculpt your ideal shape with precision and artistry.
Performed at our state-of-the-art facility in downtown Charleston, SC, liposuction can enhance your confidence by targeting areas like the abdomen, flanks, thighs, hips, arms, back, and chin. Dr. Crantford uses advanced techniques including tumescent and power-assisted liposuction, combined with our ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) protocol, to minimize discomfort and accelerate your return to normal activity.
Ready to sculpt your ideal figure? Schedule a consultation to explore your liposuction options with Dr. Crantford.
REQUEST A CONSULTATIONDr. Crantford can treat virtually any area where stubborn fat deposits accumulate. Common treatment areas include:
Remove excess abdominal fat and define waistline contours. Liposuction creates a flatter, more sculpted midsection without affecting deeper muscle structures.
Contour inner thighs, outer thighs, and hip dips. Liposuction creates smoother, more proportionate leg and hip contours for a shapelier silhouette.
Reduce bat wings, underarm fat, and back bulges. Precise liposuction in these areas reveals arm definition and back contours you’ve been working toward.
Define the jawline and create better neck definition. Submental liposuction improves facial profile and can achieve results comparable to a mini neck lift.

You’ll arrive at our Joint Commission-accredited facility in downtown Charleston. Using tumescent or power-assisted liposuction, Dr. Crantford precisely removes fat while sculpting contours with artistic precision. Most procedures take 1-3 hours.
With our ERAS Rapid Recovery protocol, most patients return to light activity within 1-2 weeks. Final results improve over 3-6 months as swelling subsides and skin tightens, revealing your beautifully contoured new silhouette.
Most patients can return to light office work and daily activities within 1 to 2 weeks after liposuction. Compression garments help minimize swelling and support skin tightening during the critical early recovery phase. Dr. Crantford’s ERAS protocol minimizes discomfort and accelerates healing through optimized anesthesia, pain management, and post-operative care.
You can gradually resume exercise and strenuous activity at 4 to 6 weeks as directed by Dr. Crantford. Final results continue to improve over 3 to 6 months as swelling completely resolves and your skin adapts to your new contours. Most patients report being pleasantly surprised by how manageable their recovery is, allowing them to enjoy their transformation sooner than expected.
The cost of liposuction varies based on several factors unique to your procedure.

Technique: Tumescent vs. power-assisted liposuction and extent of body sculpting
Anesthesia type: General anesthesia or local with sedation based on scope of procedure
