Would an umbilicoplasty be possible to create a pleasing belly button and excise loose skin around belly button? After mini TT.

I was going to have full abdominoplasty but on day of surgery doctor insisted that I do mini tummy tuck with upper & lower muscle tightening.He explained that lower scar would be more pleasing & that we would not have to worry about belly button necrosis.Now I am 2 weeks post operation and I feel I made the wrong choice.Would umbilicoplasty be possible to create pleasing innie while excising 1 inch of loose skin to remove hernia scar & tighten skin around belly button?
