Generally no, but sometimes it can be.

It depends on the location of the scar tissue. If it is in a sensitive area, then it may be painful at times, but only slightly.

If you are experiencing a lot of pain associated with scar tissue, you should have it checked for infection by a doctor. He or she will prescribe you antibiotics to kill off the infection. This is also true if you are experiencing any type of fever concurrently.

Scar tissue from endometrial implants from endometriosis can be rather painful also. This is one example of sensitive scar tissue that can cause pain and requires additional medication to control, including pain medication to relieve the pain. Endometriosis cannot be cured, but it can be managed to a degree through medication and surgeries.

Scar tissue associated with post-surgery should not be painful after the surgery heals. If it is painful, this is a prime culprit of infection and needs to be evaluated by your doctor at a follow-up appointment or a quick visit to the ER.

does it hurt to get your belly button redone in the same spot?

It depends on how much scar tissue you have. Scar tissue can be tougher to pierce, and depending on where it is, you might have to pierce around it. I've never been pierced through scar tissue, but its generally considered to be more painful and can be harder to heal. Everyone's different though!

Some piercers do and some don't. Some will require that you get a piercing in a larger gauge to get rid of the scar tissue. Just remember that piercing scar tissue is more painful than the initial piercing.
