I had a PDO thread lift in Korea about two weeks ago and am now back in the States. I think the the thread broke because the knotted part of the thread which was once on the side of my jaw is now in the center of my neck directly below the chin ( it is not visible, put I can feel it). My face does not look distorted either. I am not super uncomfortable, but I do feel some pull if I try to sleep on my side. These threads will dissolve in 4-6 months. Can I just leave it? Do I need to address this?
