Aim

The aim of the procedure is to create a vertical and a youthful looking naval. • The procedure is generally done under local anaesthesia with sedation or regional anesthesia.

Naval reshaping is indicated in people with umbilical hernia, ageing, weight loss, post pregnancy as a part of tummy tuck, following an injury, birth deformity and scarring due to piercing.

Surgery

To alter the shape, small incisions are made around the naval. The naval is tucked and shaped through some very delicate artistic suturing to recreate an aesthetic looking belly button.

As with any other surgical procedure, umbilicoplasty may be associated with risks
like infection, bleeding and rarely healing issues like stitch granulomas.

The scar will be hidden inside your belly button, making it virtually invisible.

People who are unhappy with the appearance of their belly button, may undergo
Umbilicoplasty.

Patients can return back to work within 48 hours. The recovery time may be longer
if one has a combined umbilicoplasty with umbilical hernia.
