Can the incision for a tummy tuck be lower than the pubic hair line?

Asked By:Kim Adelaide in Adelaide, AU

Can the incision for a tummy tuck be lower than the pubic hair line? I am quite hairy and worried that the hair line will be pulled up too high if not. I have read a lot of reviews on here where ladies have complained of this. ( I don't mind if I have a small vertical scar from belly button, I would prefer that to hair up my stomach.) Thank you in advance Kim
