Do PDO threads have a risk of nerve damage near mouth/jaw?

Naturalisthegoal
How risky are PDO threads, in terms of nerve damage? I know there are some very important nerves running around the mouth. I plan on choosing a qualified person to put them in around the jaw and marionette lines, but I still wondered the potential risk of nerve damage. Thank you
