I had a baby on January 3rd. He is my second baby and I didn't get any stretch marks, but my belly button piercing is a bit saggy after this one...it's not horrible, but I don't like it. I saw another woman ask about an umbilicalplasty, and all the answers were negative, but she had A LOT of excess skin, way more than I do. I wish I could go back and never get it pierced, but it looks silly with just the hole so I'll keep the ring in. Is there something I can do to fix this?
Answer: Umbilicoplasty after umbilical piercing Having the piercing tract ("tunnel") removed surgically can be performed under local anesthesia and may improve your appearance. You would end up with a small scar at the top of the tract and a small scar within the umbilicus. I recommend that you consult with board-certified plastic surgeons who have performed umbilicoplasties. They can examine you and then advise you on what you can reasonably expect from the procedure, as well as its potential risks.Good luck.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Surgical procedure To remove the hole from a belly button piercing it would require a small in office procedure, but it would be a small surgery. There is no non invasive skin tightening method that could possibly remove the hole from your belly button piercing.

Answer: You look great! I would stay away from surgery but you may want to try some of the non invasive skin tightening procedures. I would stay away from cool sculpt!Cutera Titan or Thermage or Ultherapy may have some benefit with low risk if done well. Good Luck!

Answer: Umbilicoplasty May Be A Better Option Than Tummy Tuck In your case, I think I would consider a belly button surgery rather than a tummy tuck operation. It is true that the options are limited in this situation, but I can't see performing a full tummy tuck on a woman who has such a nice belly. The complaint you pose is limited to the umbilicus and I would like to see it in 3-D to see whether or not a little minor procedure under local anesthetic could help give you the result you want.I have limited faith in the effectiveness of the non surgical options available, but I suppose one could try that as Dr. Ringler has suggested.Good Luck!
