What Is Umbilicoplasty?
Umbilicoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes or reconstructs the belly button. It may be performed as a standalone surgery or in combination with other body contouring procedures such as a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) or liposuction.
This procedure is popular among individuals who:
-
Dislike a protruding (“outie”) belly button
-
Want to correct a stretched or misshapen belly button after pregnancy or weight loss
-
Wish to remove scarring from prior piercings or surgeries
-
Desire a more youthful, “inward” and natural-looking belly button
