It’s been just about six months since I had my threading on my neck. It is swollen and painful. Please help!

This is a complication please seek a plastic surgeon immediately. It could be a chronic infection. this may need a major work. please do not wait longer.

Greetings thanks for your question,
the thread lifting recovery is normally around 4 weeks, try to use 'arnica' a swellness cream and get in touch with your doctor please.

Dmitriy Schwarzburg, MD · Answer

Depending on the type of thread you got for your treatment, it could be infected or your body could be rejecting the threads. What you have are certainly not PDO threads as they would have dissolved by now. I would recommend seeing the doctor who gave you the threads to examine your neck and to treat or remove them.
