Is It Recomendad to Have an Umbilicoplasty if I Plan to Get Pregnant?

If the umbilicoplasty is for hernia repair, then I recommend you have it done if it is causing you pain or discomfort.  

If there is no hernia, then it can wait until after pregnancy because there is a good chance that the pregnancy will cause your belly button to need to be redone.

To know what is best for you, see two or more board-certified plastic surgeons in your area for a full and complete evaluation to see if you are a candidate and if it is safe for you to have surgery.

I hope this helps.

Hi there-

Unless it is going to be a long time before you become pregnant, and unless the benefit to you of the umbilicoplasty over the time period between now and your pregnancy is extremely important to you, I would not recommend pursuing it until after your family is complete. 

Thank you for the question.

I would suggest that you wait on having umbilicoplasty and/or tummy tuck surgery until after you have completed pregnancies. As you know, pregnancy can bring about changes to the umbilicus and the remainder of the  abdomen,  potentially necessitating further surgery.

Best wishes.
