Umbilicaloplasty is a plastic surgery procedure to reshape the shape and size of the navel. This surgery provides a more aesthetic appearance of the belly button and positively affects a person’s body image.

Belly button aesthetics is suitable for anyone who is unhappy with the appearance of their belly button and wants to achieve a more aesthetic appearance.

In addition, people with congenital navel deformities or those with a deformed navel after previous surgeries may also benefit from umbilicoplasty. Individuals who are in good general health and do not have any serious health problems that may prevent surgery are ideal candidates for the procedure.

The surgical procedure

Belly button surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia and takes less than 1 hour. The surgeon makes a small incision around the bellybutton, removes excess skin and tissue, and creates the new shape of the bellybutton. The bellybutton is attached to the abdominal wall and the incisions are closed with fine stitches. The technique used during surgery varies depending on the patient’s needs and aesthetic goals.

Recovery process and results

Recovery from surgery is usually quick. Patients may experience some swelling and discomfort in the first few days, but these symptoms will soon subside. Patients should avoid heavy physical activity in the post-operative period and follow the doctor’s recommendations. During the healing process, it is important to keep the belly button area clean and protect the stitches. The complete healing process may take several weeks, during which time the final results will be visible.

The results of belly button aesthetics are usually long-lasting and make the belly button look more aesthetic, symmetrical and natural. This procedure improves patients’ overall body aesthetics and increases their self-confidence.
