Time needed for facial surgery question

For the surgeons out there- can you all weigh in on this question please? 🙏

I am 58 and have had several consults and recently got two very different surgery/general anesthesia times for the following: deep plane face/neck lift, upper bleph, lip lift, endoscopic brow lift, fat transfer, CO2 laser resurfacing. Both surgeons same age…did same highly competitive facial plastics fellowship, both double board certified ENts, both out of fellowship around 3-4 years, both use accredited surgery center with board certified MD anesthesiologist and general anesthesia.

Ok- so one surgeon says his total surgery time will be 4.5 hours for all the above- the other says 6.5-7…. I am concerned one may be going too fast one may be slow? What is the most nuanced answer?!
