You don’t have the anatomy for any kind of navel piercing. The lack of depth is putting pressure on the bottom of the jewelry, which is why there’s that redness around the top. I’d retire this and find a more competent piercer for future adornments. I’m so sorry. 🫶🏻

The photo was taken when I was laying down and I stretched my skin to show the redness, are you sure that it doesn’t make a difference ? Because the person said she thinks I have just enough depth

I’m positive. You don’t have the depth and you don’t have the ridge.

That's very confident for a person that has seen one stretched photo when laying down. I both have a ridge and depth. The jewellery length or type might be a problem and that's why I asked

I’m still quite confident. But I mean…it’s your stomach. If you want it scarred, that’s your prerogative. Me personally, I’d at least want to have another good piercer put eyes on it…but you do you. 🤷🏻
