Aesthetic Abdominal Care

Umbilicus Correction (Umbilicoplasty)

In the womb, the foetus is connected to the mother through an umbilical cord. Once the baby is born, the cord is cut, leaving a scar we know as the belly button.

People opt for umbilicoplasty to correct an abnormal-looking or damaged belly button. As a leading procedure performed by top cosmetic surgeons in Chennai, umbilicus correction restores the natural aesthetic of the midsection.

Reasons to Get Umbilicoplasty

Correct an "Outie": Corrects a protruding belly button for a more attractive, recessed appearance.

Scar Rectification: Alters the appearance of scars caused by piercings or prior medical surgeries.

Umbilical Hernia: Used to correct a condition where intestines bulge through abdominal muscle openings.

Size Modification: Rectifies abnormally large belly buttons or those expanded by pregnancy.

Combined Procedures: Often recommended alongside liposuction, tummy tucks, or mommy makeovers.

Who Is It For?

Ideal candidates are healthy individuals unhappy with their belly button's appearance or those with scars from piercings and medical procedures.

Non-Eligibility Criteria:

Pregnant women
Anaesthesia aversion
Bleeding disorders
Obese individuals

Lung disorders
Excess abdominal scar tissue
Diabetes
Acute infectious diseases

Preparations for Surgery

Following pre-operative instructions is crucial for a smooth healing process and minimizing complications.

Stop alcohol consumption 2 to 3 weeks prior; avoid smoking.
Avoid blood-thinning medications.
Pause HRT or oral contraceptives to reduce thrombosis risk.
A full-body examination will determine your custom procedure plan.

The Procedure at BM Cosmetic

Umbilicoplasty is performed under local or general anaesthesia based on your health profile. Local anaesthesia is typically used for low-risk cases.

Surgical Steps:

Small incisions are made inside the belly button to ensure scars are invisible. Excess fat or skin is removed or repositioned to achieve the desired height and contour. For hernia corrections, the abdominal wall is tightened using dissolvable stitches.

Post Surgery Care

Recovery ranges from 24 hours for minor cases to 2 weeks for major procedures. Swelling and bruising are expected.

Avoid tedious activities for 1–3 days.

Wear special garments provided by the surgeon over the treated area.

Avoid pools and saunas until stitches are fully healed.
