Can an umbilicoplasty fix this incision scar? (photo)

Dear Notideal, thanks for sharing your concern and picture, as it seems your insicion is not even properly healed yet so we dont know how is really going to look after is completely healed, I do suggest to wait at least 6 to 8 months to see the evolution, after this time if you are not confortable an scar revition can be perform to improve the stetic. be aware you will always have an scar. Make sure you go on consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Hope this helps and best of lucks. Dr. Luis Mejia.

Dear notideal,

it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. You will always have a scar in that area but it can probybla be improved. 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.

You have no idea how your umbilicus (which does not appear to be 'removed') will look once it heals. Give it at least 6 to 9 months before you decide whether it's appearance is acceptable. I hope you've been treated for that infection.
