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.
Tummy Tuck Reviews
The experience I have had this far with KC surgical arts has been top tier. From the consult to the follow up appointments. The staff are amazing and Dr. H has been more than amazing. I’ve experienced minimal pain after my tummy tuck and I do believe that’s a result of him being an excellent surgeon. So grateful for them all.
Just had a tummy tuck done a few days ago and I feel so well taken care of. All of the nurses were wonderful and the doctor checks in on you often when your home.

Tummy Tuck FAQs
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.
