Understanding Umbilicoplasty

Umbilicoplasty is a cosmetic procedure that modifies the shape and size of the belly button. Whether a patient doesn't like the natural shape of their navel or changes in their body, such as pregnancy or weight gain or loss has led to stretching, belly button surgery can restore or repair the look of their abdomen.

Belly button surgery is performed under general anesthesia. Dr. Ortiz, a board-certified plastic surgeon, will make narrow incisions to the incide of your navel, and repair and reshape it to the appearance you're seeking. During this time, depending on your unique needs, he may take this time to also remove any extra fat or skin from the area. Although umbilicoplasty is often performed at the same time as other procedures, such as a tummy tuck or mommy makeover, it can also be completed on its own.
