Do you have an innie or an outie? Some people have belly buttons that stick out - an outie - whilst others have a belly button which is hidden inside a hole - an innie. Wishing to change the orientation of your belly button, especially if the appearance has been changed due to childbirth or weight loss, is more common than you may think. As well as the position of the belly button, the size and shape of it can be a concern for some as well. Surgical options can reposition and reshape the navel or umbilicus.
Umbilicoplasty (navel or belly button surgery) is an operation involving making an “outie” belly button into an “innie”, or making an “innie” a little less obvious by lessening the size of the hole.
