Belly Button Concerns After Ext Tummy Tuck + MR 18 months ago. (photo)

Dear whylie12,

I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

While bellybutton revision can be challenging, you certainly are a candidate for this surgery and should see a plastic surgeon to review any options. Good luck.

It is possible to improve appearance of your BB by means of umbilicoplasty. You should discuss that issue first with your surgeon first and eventually seek a second opinion. Good luck.

You can consider a procedure called an umbilicoplasty to improve the appearance of your belly button. However if you are six months or less from your surgery I recommend giving it more time. Visit with your surgeon to discuss your concerns and learn more.
