Asked By:angmom14 in Campbell, California

Hi, I am 6 months post op tummy tuck after a weight loss and 3 kids. My belly button looks so bad. My doctor said he would do a scar revision but I am concerned it will never look normal. I am not comfortable with anyone seeing it and it’s really upsetting I went through all this to still feel so embarrassed of my stomach.
