I hate the look of my coin slot belly button after tummy tuck. Would love opinions about the look of it... Wondering what my options are. Scared to have surgeon redo it because I'm afraid It may turn out even worse.

Answer: Opinions of belly button post tummy tuck? Understandably, the appearance of the umbilicus is of great importance to many patients undergoing tummy tuck surgery; after all, it may be the only telltale sign of having undergone the tummy tuck surgery when the patient is wearing a swimming suit or undergarments. The umbilicus should be positioned carefully; if it is too high or too low, it may be a sign of tummy tuck surgery. If it is too round or slit like it may also look "surgical". Most patients prefer a relatively small and oval-shaped umbilicus. In your case, revisionary surgery will likely improve appearance of your umbilicus to your liking. Making it smaller and less "slot" like can be done when the time is right. Your plastic surgeon will be your best resource when it comes to more specific advice. Best wishes.
