What is a Belly Button Surgery?
Belly button surgery (umbilicoplasty) reshapes or repositions the navel itself — converting an “outie” to an “innie”, tightening a navel stretched by pregnancy or weight changes, or refining its size and shape. It treats the belly button alone and does not remove abdominal skin or repair separated muscles.
The procedure takes about 30 to 60 minutes, usually under local anesthesia, through a small incision hidden in or around the navel. Most people return to desk work within a few days and resume normal activity in about 1 to 2 weeks, avoiding strenuous exercise for several weeks.
Unlike a tummy tuck — which removes loose abdominal skin and repairs separated muscles, repositioning the navel as part of a much larger surgery — umbilicoplasty is a focused, lower-cost procedure for people whose only concern is the belly button. A board-certified plastic surgeon determines whether umbilicoplasty alone is appropriate.
How much does a Belly Button Surgery cost in Chicago?
Belly button surgery in Chicago typically starts at $3,600, with most procedures ranging from $3,600 to $6,000 all-in depending on the complexity and whether anesthesia and facility fees are bundled.

What to ask your provider
- Is umbilicoplasty alone right for me, or do I need a tummy tuck?
- Will you reshape, reposition, or resize my belly button — and how?
- Where will the incision be and how visible is the scar?
- Is there an umbilical hernia that should be repaired at the same time?
- What does the quote include — surgeon fee, anesthesia, and facility?
- Can I see before-and-after photos of your own umbilicoplasty patients?
Frequently asked questions
How much does belly button surgery cost in Chicago?
Belly button surgery (umbilicoplasty) in Chicago typically starts at $3,600 and ranges up to $6,000 all-in. Standalone reshaping costs less than when it is combined with other procedures. Chicago has a mature aesthetic market with experienced practitioners and strong local demand.
Is belly button surgery the same as a tummy tuck?
No. Umbilicoplasty reshapes or repositions the belly button only, through a small incision, and is a quick, lower-cost procedure. A tummy tuck removes loose abdominal skin and repairs separated muscles across the whole abdomen, repositioning the navel as one part of a much larger surgery.
Can belly button surgery fix an outie?
Yes. Converting a protruding “outie” into a recessed “innie” is one of the most common reasons for umbilicoplasty. The surgeon reshapes the navel through a small, well-hidden incision. If the outie is caused by an umbilical hernia, the hernia is repaired at the same time.
How long is recovery after belly button surgery?
Most people return to desk work within a few days and resume normal activity in about 1 to 2 weeks. Strenuous exercise and core workouts are avoided for several weeks while the navel heals. The final shape settles over a few months.
