Neck lift downtime comparison

What's the real downtime for a neck lift vs. non-surgical? I can't take two weeks off work.

Non-surgical (like Morpheus8) is 3-5 days of redness/pebbling. A surgical neck lift is 2-3 weeks of bruising and a compression garment.

I did the surgical route and regretted the downtime, honestly. My friend did three rounds of radiofrequency microneedling over 6 months and got 70% of my results with zero social downtime.
