One of the key features of a natural and attractive abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) is an attractive belly button.
From a plastic surgical standpoint, an attractive belly button has a few important characteristics:
- small in size
- positioned in the midline of the abdomen
- positioned at the level of the hipbones
- shadowing or superior hooding
- ovoid in shape
- scar hidden in the interior of the umbilicus
- appropriate for your body habitus
For every tummy tuck patient I take care of, I make a special effort to pay attention to the details of the operation, including the small things like umbilicus placement and aesthetics. If you are thinking about a tummy tuck, I advise you to get as close to your goal weight as possible in advance of surgery, in order to have the most beautiful possible surgical results.
