Should I request a belly button revision? I'm 3 months post-op with 360 lift. (Photos)

Asked By:lauravanny in Mill Valley, CA

I am thrilled with my surgeons work, except my bb. I wish she had concealed the incision inside rather than placing it so conspicuously around it, and the native "stalk" I feel has too much tissue, which causes it to look poofy inside. Should i request a revision? Is it even possible to improve it? Is there a certain technique I should discuss with her? I know with time the scar will fade but I'm not sure what to ask for or what is best.
