45F, scar on neck after deep plane neck and facelift, was I just unlucky? (Photos)

Sarah2023
I had a wound form on my throat/neck after a deep plane face and neck lift . Recovery was difficult for me but I followed the surgeon's instructions for all of my incision wounds: this was explained to be one of those rare occurences that happens to young patients with thinner skin on the neck. I'm left with a horrible scar that the surgeon wants to correct by unattatching the scar from my muscle. Was I unlucky and just happen to be one of those unfortunate patients? (45 f)
