Can muscle repair be undone due to surgery?

Question

Can my muscle repair be ruined? by having an umbilical surgery? I had an extended tummy tuck &Lipo and muscle repair in 2020. I am undergoing surgery end of February 2024. Need to know if the procedure is done through my bellybutton will that ruin my muscle repair.

Dear valeriaysara,
it depends on the type of surgery. But since you hat muscle repair 4 years ago, then it is unlikely that umbilical surgery will affect muscle repair. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
