Hysterectomy 6 years after tummy tuck - will a vertical incision increase my likelihood of needing a revision?

Momakover2017
I am 6 years post-tummy tuck and have recently found out I need a hysterectomy. Unfortunately my uterus is quite enlarged into abdomen due to a fibroid and my doctor is concerned they may have to do a vertical incision. What is the likelihood I may need an abdominoplasty revision. My diastasis was very bad and the plastic surgeon performed a miracle fixing it. I’ve been very happy with the results and aghast at the thought they’ll be ruined.
