I'm in the process of scheduling a TT but doing a lot of research. I understand that scarring is something we need to accept but I'm concerned about visable scarring. The last thing I want is to have a TT and still not be able to wear a bikini. I posted pictures cause I'm not sure if that makes a difference in how the belly button is stitched. Thanks for your feedback
Answer: Stitches around belly button after TT Thanks for your question. In many cases it is possible to disguise the location of the belly button scar within the contour depression of the belly button itself, which can make it less visible. If dissolving sutures are used there are no suture holes along the scar.

Answer: Belly button The belly button is an important part of a beautiful abdomen. Plastic surgery is an art not a science and all surgeons have their own tricks to make the belly button look good. Some have stitches outside, some don't. Talk to other people who have had tummy tuck surgery and ask to see photos of other tummy tucks that your surgeon has done and ask him what his priorities are in making a natural belly button. Best of luck to you, seek out a board certified plastic surgeon who is proud to show his results.

Answer: Tummy Tuck Belly Button Scar The stitches can be inside, outside or both. If you have a tummy tuck you have to accept that there will be a visible belly button scar.

Also, ask to see before and after photos of their work. This should give you a good idea of what is possible and realistic. Good luck.
