I'm 2 weeks post tummy tuck, is my belly button closing or is it just misshaped? (Photos)

379
I had a tummy tuck 2 weeks ago. I'm concerned with the vertical slit shape and healing of my belly button. My doctor told me it takes time to heal. Is my belly button closing? Is it suppose to heal this way? it was round prior to surgery. Also it's red around and little white stuff on bottom is it infected?
