I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair. I'm 6 weeks po and noticed today this black area in my belly button. Do I have to be concerned? I'm super nervous.

Answer: Black dot The dot you describe could be a suture or could be scab. Hard to say without an exam in person......

Answer: What is black dot? It is difficult to tell what the black dot is so one can only guess without seeing you in person. Usually, blackish discoloration around the belly button represents either tissue that has struggled to heal or has an overlying dried blood clot. Only your plastic surgeon will be able to tell by seeing you in the office. Best of luck.
