Belly button revision options? (Photo)

B
Buffy10Jun 10, 2024

Is there any chance of fixing this bellybutton? It has had a few revisions and is scarred and quite flat. It’s ok when I stand straight ot sit but if I lie down or stretch in any way it’s just a flat awful scar. Can a deeper and more natural bellybutton be achieved. I think my actual bellybutton is gone now after a few attempts at it.
