I had a Tummy tuck a few months ago. I did have my share of complications. Like necrosis. Now that’s it’s finally healing. My swelling is minimal. I can’t help but think my belly button is pretty ugly. I do not think that this is what it should look like. Any advice on improving the appearance? I honestly don’t even want to show off my very expensive body with my ugly belly button
