No belly button after tummy tuck. Help. What do I do? (Photo)

You likely had to have your original umbilical stalk removed due to blood supply issues.  You appear to have had a suture placed (on the inside) to try to create some sort of dimple in the area.  That technique will not create anything that looks like a belly button.  You need to ask your surgeon what happened, to confirm my suspicions.  An umbilical reconstruction can be done to make it look like you actually have a real belly button.

Definitely ask your PS why he/she created a belly button instead of keeping yours and don't be afraid to share your concerns. Sometimes this is done because you have an umbilical hernia that obliterates the belly button and during repair (during the tummy tuck) the blood supply to your umbilical stalk is compromised. It is then not an option to keep your belly button as it will become necrotic. An umbilicoplasty can be done to create a belly button at a future date, so don't stress about that.
