K-Pouch Mucosal Prolapse

Hello everyone, newbie here. I had my K-pouch built Oct. '15. Everything was good until early February when I noticed more tissue was showing at the stoma site along with increased mucus production. I was diagnosed with mucosal prolapse and my surgeon said he could easily fix it in outpatient surgery. However I'm a little hesitant because isn't surgery = more scars? I'm afraid it may affect the valve or pouch integrity. Has anyone else dealt with this before? Btw I have no incontinence or intubating issues, only the increased intestinal tissue and increased mucus. Thank you
