A tummy tuck or abdominoplasty may be right for you if you’re frustrated by loose skin, excess fat, or a persistent “belly pooch” caused by stretched abdominal muscles (diastasis recti). No amount of exercise or dieting can tighten loose skin. Ideal candidates are at or near their goal weight, in good health, and ready for the recovery process.
During a tummy tuck, Dr. Jones removes excess skin and fat and often repositions the underlying muscles to restore a flatter, tighter midsection. Stretched skin from weight changes or pregnancy typically can’t bounce back on its own, which is why this procedure can make such a difference.
A tummy tuck does more than enhance your midsection—it can renew your confidence and help you feel like yourself again. Common benefits include:

Education & Training
The cost of a tummy tuck in Cary depends on various factors, including the extent of the surgery, whether it’s combined with other procedures, and the surgeon's training and experience. After you consult with Dr. Jones, we'll provide a detailed price quote for your review.
Yes, a tummy tuck will leave a scar, but Dr. Jones carefully places the incision as low as possible on the abdomen so it's easily concealed beneath clothing or swimwear. Over time, most patients find that their scar fades significantly.
Most patients return to nonstrenuous activities within 1 to 2 weeks and resume regular routines in about 4 to 6 weeks, but recovery specifics vary from person to person. Dr. Jones provides detailed post-op care instructions and follows your progress closely.
It’s best to wait until you’re done having children, as future pregnancies can affect your results.
No, a tummy tuck isn’t a weight loss procedure, but it can dramatically improve your shape and how your clothes fit. It’s especially beneficial after significant weight loss, removing excess skin and tightening abdominal muscles for a smoother, more toned look.
