Belly button revision - is it possible to have a good outcome? (Photos)

Asked By:Exuberant253832 in England, United Kingdom

So I had belly button revision after I got a botched belly button after a tummy tuck by the same surgeon. So he only addressed a little bit of skin on the top. As you can see my belly button is awful at the moment. I am in the process of having consultations with other surgeons as I can’t live with it. A response I got from one surgeon was “That’s exactly what we’re planning to do. The sides of the abdomen are slightly raised, while the center of the belly sits lower — and that’s the main issue. We’ll add some fat to the sides to even them out, and then contour the center inward” Another surgeon said it just needs pulling inwards. Can someone please give me some input on what the best outcome will be
