Can a belly button be lowered? (Photo)

January 1, 2020
Asked By:Tory12 in Ohio, OH

I had a tummy tuck 3 years ago. Everything is great except that the new position of my belly button is really high. I have hardly any distance between my belly button and my breast. Making it really difficult to find a swim suit. Almost all of the tops I try on look like the band of the swimsuit top is sitting just above my belly button.
