Sagging navel piercing after babies - how can I fix the skin in this area? (Photo)

Hello, can you please provide advice on what I can do (surgical or non surgical) to improve the skin that is sagging around my navel peircing? The rest of the skin on my stomach is ok. I’m not sure if it’s caused by diastasis recti or just the scarring from the piercing being stretched.

From your photographs, it seems you certainly do not need a tummy tuck. You would probably get very little improvement and you could save your money for a nice little trip. Your loose skin seems very natural.

A mini tummy tuck can be a good option when the loose skin is mainly below the belly button and there is little or no muscle separation. If your surgeon feels there is not enough upper abdominal skin to pull down safely, that is a valid reason to avoid a full tummy tuck. An umbilical float means...

A mini tummy tuck may be possible, but it depends on where your loose skin is and whether the old scar can be safely incorporated into the new incision. From the photo, the scar appears low on the lower abdomen, which may make it possible to revise or remove part of it during a lower abdominal...

Your lower abdominal prominence appears to be mostly muscle laxity, although there is minor adiposity and skin redundancy too. The sad face appearance of your bellybutton is due to skin excess above, and this will not be affected by a 'mini' tummy tuck; this is because the skin around the belly...
