Will my belly button go back to how it looked before the laparoscopy? one week in and it just looks like a horizontal slit.

Yes: You will have some inflammation and swelling from the surgical incision and instrument manipulation during the surgery. Will take 4-6 weeks to settle down and scar will take months to fully mature.
