PDO thread migration. Can I have this removed?

Question

I had a thread lift in my cheek. 2 weeks ago. It is now settled near my chin. It looks to be coiling up as the days go on and sliding further down under my chin. Can I have this removed?

Burton M. Sundin, MD · Answer

This can be adjusted or removed. I would check with the doctor who placed the thread. A small incision can be made and the thread removed.

Thank you for asking the question.
  
A PDO Thread removal is impossible because it is injected through a very tiny whole from a needle which is used to take blood sample. So, a thread would have been injected into the deep layers of the skin and with that needle and there is no way now that thread can be removed.
