The Confidence I Needed to Live Freely

WORTH IT
I made a visit to the clinic back in 2018, after a family member recommended the Hurontario St. team. The staff was super nice and helpful. & Dr. Ryan Austin did an exceptional job in recreating my navel after years of living with one that I hated (due to a botched umbilical hernia repair). He listened to my concerns during my consultation and gave me the post-op confidence I needed to live freely. I no longer think twice when packing swimwear for my vacations :)

Hi there. I also have a botched navel after an umbilical hernia repair and every surgeon I’ve consulted with tells me that fixing it will result in a substantial vertical scar below the button. Can I ask whether you need up with a scar please? I’m so embarrassed by my tummy button since the surgery, it’s quite ugly now. I’d never show anyone as I think they’d be repulsed as I know I am. I’m hoping your surgeon will be able to help me so I’m going to contact him for a consult. Wish me luck!
