Tiny, shallow belly button post tummy tuck - can this be revised to give me a deeper belly button and hood?

March 1, 2023
Asked By:Singaporemummy in Scotland, United Kingdom

Hi - I am very upset to have a horrible looking belly button. It’s very shallow, not symmetrical and small. Is it possible to revise this belly button? Give it a hood, make it bigger? I would like a natural looking belly button. I have looked after myself my whole life. Stayed in good shape. A twin pregnancy gave me a couple of hernias, diastasis recti and a tethered c section scar but I looked better then that I do now
