Small dot of thread exposed after double eyelid stitching? (Photos)

Firstly i wana thanks all the Drs whoever responsed to my question. The double crease prob seems like improved slightly as i keep on doin lots of "open eyes exercise" bt i realized that is small dot of blue thread being exposed at the end.

Do i need a revision as soon as possible or should i just wait? Thanks for all your advise.
