Hello and thank you in advance. I had Deep plane/ neck lift and CO2 in January 2023. Both issues with face and neck returned. The Co2 caused damage. Big pores, loss of elasticity and lines across my face. Surgery start time was 8:37 and ended at 10:22. That is a total of 1hr and 46min. Take 30 off for Co2 and he spent 1hr and 16 min on my deep plane and neck lift. Is it possible to do this properly in that amount of time? My face and neck are saying no.
