From the attached photo, your umblicus seems to be fine for now. I recommend that you have it checked out by your surgeon. Meanwhile, try to keep the area clean and you may apply a topical antibiotic twice a day until you see him.
MGUS probably wouldn't interfere with a tummy tuck procedure. However, I would have your primary medical doctor provide a clearance note prior to surgery.
Thank you for your question. In general, I advise my patients to lose as much of their excess weight as possible before surgery. While you may look OK losing weight after your tummy tuck, it is possible that you will have a looser final result than if you lose the weight first....
