Asked By:karengani in Skokie, IL

Hi. Had a tummy tuck 5 weeks ago. spoke to my dr regarding the hole in my belly button prior to surgery, about my fear of it looking unnatural. . My bb looks weird and not even round. It has no hole either. He told me that I didn't have enough fat underneath and that's the best he could do.I've seen skinnier women than me with a normal bb hole. The shape is also upsetting me. Is there anything I can do to fix this? He says there isn't and its depressing me :(
