Before having a tummy tuck, one of the biggest worries our patients have is “what is my belly button going to look like?” No one wants an ugly belly button, or for it to be a dead giveaway that they had work done.

Because so much extra skin is removed during tummy tuck surgery, the original belly button often goes away with it. But during a tummy tuck using the BellaButton technique, Dr. Salazar creates a beautiful, natural-looking belly button. 

As the pioneer of this technique, Dr. Salazar explains the key differences between the original techniques used to create a belly button during a tummy tuck, and the advanced approach of the BellaButton.

See the difference between Dr. Salazar’s BellaButton results and standard tummy tuck belly button on our blog.
