So I really don't like the shape of my belly button it frowns :( why? And what solution could there be to fix this? I would like to have a normal belly button either circular or long and skinny like an oval
Answer: My belly button frowns :( Why? Candidate for tummy tuck? A more expansive view as well as a profile view would provide much needed information. I would search for the board certified plastic surgeon who you feel is most likely to give you the best results and who performs hundreds of these procedures each year. I would look at patient reviews as well as before and after photos on that surgeon's website.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Frowning Belly Button Your sad belly button can be corrected with either an abdominoplasty or umbilicoplasty procedure depending on how much loose skin you have in your abdomen. An in person consultation would be best for you to discuss the options with a board-certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: And abdominoplasty would be too much surgery solely to correct the appearance of the umbilicus. As part of and abdominoplasty the umbilicus is refashion. I don't think it's prudent to go through this substantial operation solely for this purpose. And umbilical plastic could be performed to change the appearance of the umbilicus but make certain you understand the trade-offs.

Answer: My belly button frowns :( Why? Candidate for tummy tuck? No way to give a complete answer without an exam and the photos are so limited in scope they are not that helpful. Options are a tummy tuck if you have loose skin of the upper and lower abdomen, or an umbilicoplasty to reshape the belly button if a TT is not necessary.
