Tummy tuck scar and belly button scar - what should be expected?

KSC16
Why are some belly buttons so round, some so oval, so really shallow, and some have such a pronounced scar? What should they look like and what procedure is best used to make them beautiful and not be a tell tale sign of a TT. Also, why are some tummy tuck scars so neat and symmetrical while others are so jagged and crooked?
