Had umbilicoplasty more than 2 mos ago. Saw surgeon and he said he could revise it. He said the surgeon who fixed my hernia sealed off my umbilical shaft? Now my belly button has no depth. Does this result look acceptable? Will this belly button hinder me in fitness competitions in which my body is judged?
