Would a small fat containing umbilical hernia be a contraindication for abdominal smart-liposuction? (Photo)

Hopefulinky
I have had this small hernia since my pregnancy in2005. A general surgeon said he wouldn't even bother to fix it if he were me. It only contains fat per a CT report. Would this prevent me from being able to have lipo sculpture on my abdomen?
