Hello everyone I'm getting a lower bodylift this coming May. I'm excited and also nervous. I had a umbilicals surgery done over 10 years ago and the surgeon that did it basically left me with no belly button and I had to remove my belly piercing
Answer: Belly button piercing after body lift 360 circumferential body lift belt lipectomy thigh lift new belly button Thank you for your question regarding bellybutton piercing after a belt lipectomy or 360 circumferential, lower body lift. Certainly, "yes" you can have your bellybutton pierced after the body lift. I would wait till everything is healed and your plastic surgeon is comfortable with the belly button piercing. Usually, when my patients want their bellybutton pierced, we wait at least six weeks after the body lift procedure. I don't trust anyone else with piercings of the surgical area. Therefore, I perform the belly piercing procedure in the office. Since you said your belly button or umbilicus was previously sacrificed during a procedure, a new bellybutton may need to be created during the body lift. Technically, this it is not too difficult to create a new bellybutton. However every patient is different. Whether it is a new bellybutton or old belly button, you can still get a belly button piercing, 6 to 8 weeks after the body lift. Good luck. I hope this answers your question about bellybutton piercing after a 360 circumferential lower body lift. After the body lift, I think you look awesome with a new body and a belly button piercing!! Do you have any questions, please contact my office, sincerely, Dr.Katzen.

Answer: Belly button piercing after body lift A belly button ring after plastic surgery is always the sign of a happy patient :). You should be able to get your new belly pierced several months after your body lift once the tissue has softened. I generally want my patients to wait at least 3 months before considering. This is a good questions to ask you surgeon during one of your postop visits.
