Low body fat revision?

dextr
A surgeon tried to give me some kind of ab etching which i hate. I told him no to that in the first place. I have already consulted and due to the lines being wide and smooth with fat underneath, it can be reversed with more lipo. I wonder if i should be at a low or higher bodyfat for the procedure since my weight fluctuates of around 15 pounds naturally (12% bodyfat to around 18/20%). Do you think being at the lowest bodyfat will make it easier for the surgeon to fix and smooth my abdomen fat
