I'm 2 weeks postop of my chin implant & I was picking at my scab because it seemed lumpy, then this clear string came from underneath my skin & I don't know whether to cut it or leave it alone but it's noticeable & my doctors office is closed over the weekend. I have work tomorrow & would prefer not to walk around with a string attached lol
