What should I expect to pay for belly button scar revision? (Photo)

Question

Hello, several failed attempts at a belly button piercings resulted in a very unflatering scar above my belly button. To make matters worse, my pregnancy caused 2 ugly stretch marks around the scarred tissue. Can these scars be fixed? What would the costs for the procedures be?

The scar revision can be performed with a small surgery but this will not improve the stretchmarks.Kenneth Hughes, MD

Hi, Thanks for your question. As per your photo, the scar revision can be performed under local anesthesia but it will not improve the stretchmarks.

Your scar can be improved with a scar revision but this won’t improve the appearance of your stretch marks.  Its possible the procedure could be performed under a local anaesthetic.  Costs will vary widely depending on the qualifications, skills and experience of your chosen surgeon.
