I had a Tummy Tuck 6 months ago. I’m not sure about my belly button. It doesn’t look like what other belly buttons after tummy tucks look like. I love my doctor and I have not mentioned it but does this look like it could be improved with a revision? Leave it as is? I’m not wearing a bikini now not because of the extra skin but because of my belly button making me insecure. I’m willing to wait if in the experts opinions this will get better but if there isn’t much to do I rather do the revision
