So almost a year ago I had someone pierce my belly button and I regretted it so I took it out and left it to heal but now there are two brown spots when I pass my finger over its smooth but when you squeeze the area it's sorta hard. I saw a video on YouTube of a doctor in New York who made one incision and cut the scar tissue out and stitched it up and the patient is left with a very small white incision line --what do I do?
