Bellybutton Revision Procedure
Bellybutton Revision surgery, also known as Umbilicoplasty, is used to alter the look and shape of your bellybutton alone. The shape of your bellybutton is determined at birth, but may change over time due to weight changes, pregnancy, or an umbilical (bellybutton) hernia. Some people with minimal belly buttons or "outies" wish that they had more distinctive “innie” belly buttons, while other people dislike the shape of the navel. One may desire a "T" shape to the belly button, created by a tiny bit of overhanging abdominal skin over the top portion of the bellybutton or a horizontally shaped belly button to take on more of a vertical orientation. When a patient decides on Bell button Revision surgery as a solution to the problem, a meeting with the surgeon will determine how the belly button should look after surgery.
Bellybutton Revision surgery may be combined with other cosmetic surgery procedures, such as Liposuction, Tummy Tuck, and Breast Augmentation or done as an entirely separate procedure.
Bellybutton Revision, or Umbilicoplasty is performed with local anesthesia or conscious sedation by request of the patient. The procedure takes the average of 30 to 90 minutes. The surgery is usually performed in the doctor's office operating room, although a surgical facility may be used, especially if other procedures are performed simultaneously.
In the first 24 to 48 hours after your procedure you will notice very little swelling, bruising or discomfort. Most people return to work and normal activities either the same day or the day after the procedure. The healing process starts immediately.
The risks associated with Belly button Revision surgery are extremely rare. Though, like with all surgical procedures, there are some risks. As with any surgery, you can help reduce the risks by closely following the pre and post-surgery instructions provided to you by your surgeon. Possible risks include scarring, infections, under-correction or over-correction, or the need for further revisions. Incisions are typically hidden within the belly button and sutures are either dissolvable or removed in 7 to 10 days.
The results of Bellybutton Revision surgery are permanent except in cases of large weight gain or pregnancy after surgery.
The surgeon's fee can range from $500 to $2000. Bellybutton Revision surgery is considered cosmetic surgery, insurance does not apply.

Toronto By car
Major highways leading into Toronto are the QEW, the 404, the 401, the 400, and the 427. Toronto is in the enviable position of being the largest city in Canada, so it's relatively easy to find a sign pointing you in the right direction. Be advised that traffic on incoming highways can be extremely heavy.
The main streets in Toronto are laid out in a grid pattern that makes it one of the easiest cities to get around in by car. Getting from point to point anywhere in the city can be achieved with only a few turns. Parking in the downtown core can be expensive and hard to find, but is plentiful and inexpensive or free throughout the rest of the city.

Toronto Transit bylaws
Toronto has two bylaws related to the transit system that often confuse or surprise visiting drivers:
If a bus is signalling intent to merge into traffic from a stop, you must yield to the bus.
If a streetcar in front of you and travelling in your direction has its doors open, you cannot pass the open doors.
However, if a traffic island (it'll look like a raised median with a transit shelter on top) separates the streetcar from your lane, you may pass with caution.
Additionally, drivers are advised that Torontonians generally take their obligation to give a wide berth to emergency vehicles quite seriously: if you hear sirens or see lights, pull over to the side of the road safely but quickly.
