- MRIThe vast majority of breast augmentation patients enjoy their results for several years, but breast implants shouldn’t be considered lifetime devices. Implant manufacturers generally say implants can last 10 to 15 years. If you get silicone gel implants, an annual MRI is recommended after the first few years to monitor your implants.
- General SurgeryThe cost of breast augmentation surgery, much like other elective cosmetic procedures, varies depending on a number of factors. Among those are the geographic location where the operation is performed, the implants chosen, and the training and experience of the surgeon. When we quote a price for breast augmentation, it includes several related costs. Surgeon’s fees, anesthesiologist’s fees, and the operating fee are all part of the total price. We are committed to making our surgical services accessible to as many women as possible and are happy to offer financing options to qualified patients.

- LiposuctionAn arm lift, technically called a brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure that reshapes the under portion of the upper arm, from the underarm region to the elbow. An arm lift procedure helps Kansas City patients achieve smoother skin and more attractive contours. In addition, any localized pockets of fat in the upper arm region may be reduced in conjunction with liposuction.

- Breast ReductionTechnically called reduction mammoplasty, breast reduction surgery removes excess breast fat, skin, and glandular tissue to achieve a breast size more proportionate to your body. In many cases, a breast reduction will also alleviate the discomfort associated with overly large breasts. The weight of excess breast tissue can cause back, neck, and shoulder pain and may impair your ability to live an active life. Breast reduction surgery is a highly personal decision, and it should be done to improve your emotional and physical health, not to comply with someone else’s desires.
- Breast LiftBreast lift, technically called a mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that can lift and improve the shape of a female breast.
- RhinoplastyRhinoplasty is a specialized surgery of the nose that may improve its appearance and proportion to enhance facial harmony and confidence. Rhinoplasty by our Kansas City-area surgeons may also correct impaired breathing caused by structural defects in the nose. If you desire a more symmetrical nose, keep in mind that everyone’s face is asymmetric to some degree. Because the goal of most rhinoplasty procedures is to create facial balance, your results may not be completely symmetrical.
- Breast ReconstructionIt is our goal to restore a natural look and promote your redefinition, without cancer at the center of your view of yourself. Appearance isn’t everything, but restoring a sense of normalcy with breast reconstruction surgery can help Kansas City patients take a big and important step on the road to recovery.

- Face LiftHere in the Kansas City metro area, we perform facelift surgery to reduce visible signs of aging in the face and neck. Facelift surgery will not change your basic appearance, but it will turn back the clock on your face, restoring a younger version of you that will continue to age naturally with time. Facelift surgery is especially appealing because it doesn’t require extensive incisions or an overly pulled look, leaving your face looking youthful and natural.
- Neck Lift
- BlepharoplastyWe perform cosmetic eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, in Kansas City to improve the look of the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. Sometimes called “eye lift” surgery, the procedure can reduce drooping, excess skin around the eyes that can create a tired or puffy appearance. Patients are often surprised how this simple procedure that requires little downtime can have such a big effect on their appearance, helping them look younger and brighter.
- AbdominoplastyMultiple pregnancies, significant weight loss, or the natural aging process may have left you longing for a firm, smooth midsection. While exercise can burn fat and tone muscles, it cannot get rid of loose skin and stretch marks, or repair separated abdominal muscles. At Associated Plastic Surgeons, our experienced plastic surgeons can renew your abdominal area with abdominoplasty, often called a tummy tuck, in Kansas City.
- Nose SurgeryIf you’re considering nose surgery to improve your breathing, your insurance provider may cover part or all of the cost.
- Body LiftA body lift is a surgical procedure that improves the tone and shape of underlying tissue that supports skin and fat. Excess sagging fat and skin are removed to treat conditions caused, in part, by poor tissue elasticity. Exercise cannot always achieve the desired results of people who have uneven contours and loose skin. Aging, sun damage, and significant fluctuations in weight, as well as genetic factors, may contribute to poor tissue elasticity. This can result in sagging of the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, and upper arms. Cellulite can also be reduced by body lift surgery.
- Breast SurgeryAbsolutely. It is common to combine breast augmentation with other cosmetic operations, especially for women who have had children. A mommy makeover typically includes procedures such as a tummy tuck and liposuction, along with cosmetic breast surgery. Some women who want breast implants also may need a breast lift to get the desired results. Combining procedures benefits patients because it is less costly than having the operations separately. Additionally, going through a single recovery period is more convenient.
- Body ContouringMany people are satisfied when they step on the scale, yet frustrated when they look in the mirror. That’s because despite a healthy lifestyle that includes exercise and good eating habits, stubborn areas of fat may still remain. For those individuals, Associated Plastic Surgeons offers CoolSculpting® Elite at our Leawood practice near Kansas City. This breakthrough, non-surgical body contouring treatment shrinks love handles, back fat, thighs, and other areas of unwanted fat.
