How many tummy tucks can a women have? Does a history of more procedures make the healing process harder or longer? (Photos)

I’ve had a mommy makeover done in the past. Which included a full tummy tuck with muscle repair and breast augmentation with lipo of the flanks. Fast forward to 2024, I decided to fix my TT scar that was left horrid.. he asked if I wanted to do the full TT since he was already there but I was too scared and wasn’t sure how I’d heal since I gave birth via C section in 2023..… now (first c section other 3 kids were via vaginally). I am considering getting another Mommy makeover this time removing my implants but having a lift with a tt with muscle repair..… my question is. This would be my 4th procedure done to my abdomen. Is there a max or risky limit? I’m wanting to get it done but not enough to where it’s too risky and my healing process will be longer or harder.. also I was diagnosed with lupus a month ago which makes 2 autoimmune diseases for me, I also have hashimotos disease.
