The chances of doing damage are negligible as long as you are careful
not to let the solder run all over the place. With a low-power pen the
potential for damage is even smaller. Really it should be a quick repair
just heat for a few seconds and as soon as the solder reliquifies +
rebonds take the heat away. That's it.
Good luck
