Belly Button Abnormality After Tummy Tuck

ORIGINAL POST

Belly Button Abnormality After Tummy Tuck

WORTH IT
I got a tummy tuck a few months ago due to excess skin after weight loss. Although I am content with the results, I am extremely distressed and concerned about my “new” belly button. I got this procedure to get rid of the loose skin but never did I think my belly button would look so atrocious to the point I want my old belly button back. I expressed my concerns to my doctor but was told my belly button anatomy is why it looks the way it does and also the way I healed. I’m so confused because I don’t believe healing is what’s causing the loose skin in belly button to hang. I was also told laser would help it but I’m not sure how?? I was using a belly button shaper as instructed to but as soon as I take it out, the skin begins to hang. I would like to get other doctors feedback:

I understand you're not satisfied, but I have to say it still looks beautiful, maybe even more so than it usually looks after tummy tucks, because it looks so real. Normally I can see by the belly button when a woman had a tummy tuck, but I never would've guessed it with you. And I get we all have different tastes, but it surely doesn't seem atrocious imo. You have a nice, extremely realistic result, so try to be happy about it. Or have another corrective surgery if you really want to, but I personally would be thrilled if mine looked like this.
I’m not sure what you mean by hanging skin. That belly button is very cute.
I think it looks very attractive!
