I had my belly button pierced in college and it was great! But then I got older, gained some weight, and decided to take it out. It left a dark spot right where the piercing went through above my belly button, so it kind of looks like I have 2 belly buttons! How do I get rid of my ugly scar WITHOUT surgery? I'm now pregnant, and I know it's just going to stretch and get worse.

Due to the increasing "sarcastic idiotic" remarks.. I think I'll end this now. Thanks to those of you who gave me good answers.

I don't know if there's any truth to this, but I've heard that massaging tea tree oil into the scarred area can help reduce the scars.
Personally I would recommend a product such as Mederma, which is a gel that's formulated to reduce the redness and bumpiness of scars. You can also just go to CVS or Walgreens and ask a clerk about scar minimizing treatments.
If none of those help, consult your doctor about getting a stronger topical treatment; in other words a non-surgical solution to the scar problem. Good luck, and congratulations (about the pregnancy)!

ok, so this happened second time round last week, so let it heal fully to form a scar. once this has happened, moisturize it as the massaging movement will help to flatten it, and try and get hold of some silicon products for scars, (it could be expensive) this will flatten it over time and also reduce any redness and the scar should fade over time. hope this helps =]

I don't think it's possible. Mine has been there for about 7 years now. My nipples still have scars and so does my tongue. The stupid things you do to think you are cool.

You can't get rid of it. You should have never gotten it in the first place
