Is it possible to fix an appendectomy scar and get lower abdomen lipo at the same time? (photos)

Fantastic907819
Hi! I have an appendectomy scar from when I was 5 years old....I’m a small girl (work out daily, eat healthy) but the scar on my stomach is kind of unsightly, protruding over the scar line. I’d love to get it fixed and some lipo in my lower abdomen to achieve a really flat stomach. Does this seem possible? I’d prefer to not do a mini tummy tuck as I haven’t had kids yet.
