Depends on what you mean by working better. For me, I still have the same problem with aerophlagia (air in stomach), but most people don't have this problem. I would think that the pressure would not have to be as high after MMA/GA; this is assuming that you would still need CPAP. The few times I've used my autopap, I've noticed looking at the graphs on my PC that the pressure needed to keep me open was lower then it used to be.
OSA gets worse with age, so if you can afford an MMA, do it.
