Endotine common side effects
Endotines can have a number of side effects including pain, a persistent firm lump under skin, hair loss, and loosening and dislocation. In my opinion a bone tunnel is a safer and more effective method.

Side effects of Endotine Implants
The most common issue with the Endotine implants is that they can be tender for the first few months after surgery.

The other issue is that they can sometimes be noticed as an unusual bumpiness under the skin if they are palced anterior to the hairline. Again, this goes away after a few months.
Much less commonly, the implant can slip causing a need to re-do the surgery....
