Deep belly button one year after surgery, is it unreasonable to have surgeon fix this? (photo)
One year after having a tummy tuck my belly button is a tad over an inch deep making it difficult to keep clean. My surgeon was annoyed when I asked about it and said do you expect me to fix this? Am I being unreasonable? Should I expect him to fix this problem or should I just live with it. Needless to say, I really don't want to be cut again.
