Tummy tuck after c-section (cut was vertical, not bikini)? (Photo)

C A
Hi, I gave birth last June 12, 2021 and would like to ask if it is safe for me to get a tummy tuck? I underwent a caesarean surgery and the cut was not a bikini cut, it was vertical so I’m wondering how the tummy tuck scar will look like. And if it will leave a scar?
