Triangle-shaped Belly Button After Hernia Surgery

User Avatar

Is it normal for my doctor to leave my belly button triangle-shaped instead of a circle after umbilical hernia surgery? My belly button used to be in a perfect circle shape and now it's left like a triangle. Already more than a month has passed and it still looks deformed because of him. What can be done about this?
