What should I do if my PDO thread didn’t dissolve? (Photo)

mk19Jan 19, 2019
I had them put in my upper lip 18 months ago. I have been left with myself pulling out bits and pieces and severe disfiguration. The Dr. that put them in will not remove them. I don’t know what to do.

Hello. Thank you for your question. You can do a slight brow lift with botox, but not necessarily a forehead lift. Botox can only be placed to raise the brows and get ride of forehead lines.

Accutane will have no effect on threadlifting, so getting a threadlift one month after stopping Accutane is not a problem.

I would wait 24 hours to use a steam room after thread placement, just to be sure all entry points have closed.
