Tummy tuck and belly button scar revision

By Cosmoquery on 06 Feb 2011

Has anyone had their scar or belly button revised? I have just had both procedures. My belly button developed a blood blister within 24 hours leaving a red weeping wound where the new belly button should be. I am concerned this will scar worse than the original surgery.

I think with most tummy tucks the belly button is affected. You might ask your plastic surgeon about the red, weepiness of your belly button to make sure it's not infected.

Here's what some doctors have to say about belly button post-op care.
