My surgeon just submitted the codes for me to have a Panniculectomy and Hernia repair

I wanted to know if the surgeon has to go through the origional incison of my Gastric Bypass to fix the incisional hernia I have. It is about the size of a baseball or softball. I really don't want to have a anchor incision on my stomach (hernia repair and TT). My incision scar is only about 5 inches long and is now starting to fade almost a year post op. Any answers?
