Am I a good candidate for umbilicalplasty to reshape my belly button? (Photos)

Question

Hello and thank you in advance! Do you think I would be a good candidate for umbilicalplasty. I had a tummy tuck in Dec 2019 and I don’t like my belly button. Could it be possible to reshape it?

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

Your belly button is too large and very visible.  You will need an elliptical incision to vertically oriented and the umbilicus sutured down to the base of the original umbilicus to hide the scar deep in the concavity of the umbilicus.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Dear Yamimami,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. 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.
