I am almost 2 years postpartum with my final child and I can't stand the way my belly button looks. My skin was stretched to the point that my old naval piercing has both holes visible and there is some droop of skin. I was hoping there was a less invasive way to fix this instead of an umbiblicoplasty or mini tummy tuck but I don't know what my options are. Please help!

A revision of your belklky button certainly may help the overall appearance at this point. Skin excision may be performed along with resizing and reshaping.

it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
