What Happens to Your Belly Button After Liposuction?

dramatic_curves
I am considering getting liposuction on my abdomen and flanks. I am just curious about what would happen to my belly button after lipo (I have an innie) Is it replaced? My belly button is stretched out, but will the stretching lessen after lipo? Ultimately I would like my belly button to look very similar to someone who has an innie with naturally flat stomach.
