What Is a Tummy Tuck?

For women and men alike, hanging skin and pockets of fat in the abdominal region can be frustrating, especially when you've put effort into losing it. Pregnancy, weight loss, and aging are the main reasons why an individual may not be able to attain a slim and tight abdomen. A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that reshapes the abdominal region, producing thinner outcomes for patients. We perform tummy tuck surgery tailored to each individual's aesthetic goals. This popular surgery at Kansas City Surgical Arts gives patients a new, youthful shape and restored confidence. Learn more about how abdominoplasty can remove excess fat and skin while tightening the stomach muscles by scheduling your consultation at our Kansas City, MO office.

How Is a Tummy Tuck Performed?

A tummy tuck is done under general anesthesia. There are various techniques to consider when this surgery is performed. To start, the incision type is determined based on the quantity of excess skin. Some individuals with severe loose skin might benefit best from a full tummy tuck. This method makes the incision from hip to hip, just on top of the pubic area. Individuals who are concerned with only minimal skin laxity may be better suited for a smaller incision. Regardless of the technique used, all abdominoplasty procedures at Kansas City Surgical Arts involve the excision of loose skin and fat removal.

Everyone that I had any interaction with at this facility were beyond amazing!!!

Amazing staff, amazing Dr, and amazing results so far! From consultation to surgery, Dr Hlavacek did incredible. I got my breast augmentation surgery yesterday at 8am and he called me last night at 9pm to check on me. With surgery yesterday, they already look fantastic even with the swelling. To the point my husband said he would have paid double for them 🤣 I can’t wait to see what they look like when completely healed! Thank you all!

Dr.Baker was amazing! I was having issues on the day of surgery and gave him a call up around 10pm not knowing if he was going to answer, but he did and helped me tremendously with getting the prescription I needed right away. We had a little trouble finding a pharmacy so he did some research after our call and gave us a call back about 30 minutes later. He even gave me a check up call in the morning to make sure I was still doing alright. He saved me so trouble by answering his phone that night, can’t say thank you enough.

We were so impressed by Dr.Baker and his staff. I had a small complication prior to surgery , and Dr.Baker himself called me back and helped me. Then when I arrived for my surgery, my driver developed medical issues, and they took care of him as well! They were all so kind and caring, never rushed. Then Dr. Baker called back in the afternoon to check on both of us! I would give the very highest recommendation to anyone I know needing oral surgery.

Kansas City Surgical Arts is the best. The WHOLE staff is amazing and caring. It starts with setting up a consultation all the way through your procedure and follow ups. The front desk ladies, patient coordinator (Hannah) to nursing, (Bella, and Kim) and of course Dr. Hlavacek (the best), care so much for their patients. I would highly recommend KC Surgicial Arts.

About Us

Get a Slimmer Abdomen

Many factors can result in a sagging lower abdomen with hanging and wrinkled skin. A tummy tuck is usually the primary way to overcome this. If you are bothered by the hanging skin in your abdomen, no matter how minimal or severe, an abdominoplasty can allow you to get a look you'll love. We invite you to call Kansas City Surgical Arts for more information.

How much does a tummy tuck cost?

During your initial consultation, we will create your unique surgical plan to reach your unique concerns and goals before discussing costs. Our team will be better able to estimate your costs as soon as the type of tummy tuck has been selected, which technique will be used, what anesthesia is needed, and other factors. To ensure you get the beautiful results you desire, Kansas City Surgical Arts helps make your tummy tuck easy to afford by using many payment methods and giving you information on low-interest financing.

What type of tummy tuck should I get?

There are three most common types of abdominoplasty: full, extended, and mini. We will listen to your needs and goals in your initial consultation before examining your stomach. Then, we can better decide which tummy tuck will produce your best results. A full tummy tuck is good to correct issues in the lower and upper stomach, whereas a mini abdominoplasty is better if you only have concerns below your belly button, such as a "pooch." An extended tummy tuck is designed to address issues in the stomach and your hips and upper thighs.

What will my scars look like?

The incisions needed for your tummy tuck will depend on the technique used. During all tummy tucks, we make the smallest incisions to limit scarring. Your surgeon also makes incisions in less visible areas (through the belly button or in the public region), so they may be hidden by underwear or a swimsuit. After your surgery, it's important to adhere to your scar management instructions so your stitches heal properly and blend into your natural skin.
