Answer: Hygiene of the umbilicus after and abdominoplasty is simple. Ihave my patients clean the navel was soap and water. A small cotton applicator can be gently insinuated to clean up the depths. You should get specific instructions however from your own surgeon.

Answer: Hygiene of the umbilicus after and abdominoplasty is simple I have everybody shower the day after surgery and every day there after. To clean the belly button, use gentle soap and water and if need very gently use a Q-tip to clean inside. BUT CHECK with your surgeon first. He / she operated and they know what they did and how they want it cared for.Good LuckStephen M. Davis, MD, FACSGreen Hills Plastic Surgery
