Herniated navel?

Years ago, I had my gall bladder removed. It was an "open" surgery, as the Dr. said it was the "gall bladder from hell'. Over time, my navel became an "outie" because of the gall bladder and other prior abdominal surgeries. My LB surgeon said he can fix the outie at the same time he bands me. Between that and losing 120 lbs, I could look a lot better in my speedos a year from now (lol). Just curious if anyone has had that procedure? Did it work okay? Thanks.
