Belly buttons

Did anyone have their surgeon not go through their belly button? Thinking about asking at my consultation this week if it’s an option and would love to hear anyone’s experience with it! Is there another option and where would it be?

Even pressing on my own belly button hurts and I hate the idea of something healing in there. If anyone else was creeped out by the belly button incision and got it anyways, I’d love to hear your experience as well!

Maybe I’m overthinking. I’ve heard it’s the fastest scar to fade so that’s appealing obviously, but it freaks me out
