Hello @xuxu34 thank you for your question. It is sometimes the case that the navel does not look the best after a traditional abdominoplasty or tummy tuck. Consult a board-certified plastic surgeon to find out what you need so you can receive more insight and find the best solution for you. Best wishes!

Dear xuxu34,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from scar revision. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Unfortunately the suturing of the bb was done very poorly. And can not be surgically "fixed:. I recommend using a decorative tattoo.

Hello and thanks for your question. Belly button revision procedure can be performed for your case. 1 year is a plenty enough time to plan a revision surgery.
