Why Unable To Lose Weight Below Huge Horizontal Crease Above Belly Button?

Hi, i have a huge horizontal crease/indention right above my belly button that is about 11 inches long. I believe it is genetics, but it just is different. I'm trying to do muscle training and its just impossible to loose any weight below this indention. Is this line just hereditary?
