Dear Sarahlee,Please inform your doctor who performed the thread procedure. It can be remedied by making a small opening on the skin (afteranaesthesia) and the thread length reduced by trimming it off.

It is not just for body slimming and body sculpting, it is also for other beauty treatments. The machines that the doctor used are of a different grade as compared to the ones that the salons are using. Machines that are used in the medical clinics are backed by scientific evidence and clinical reports. Although the doctors cannot guarantee the same results for every patient, the machines used are said to be much safer. Based on scientific research and clinical studies, patients would normally have a higher chance of success as well as a better chance of seeing solid results based on evidence.

The Tesla chair is based on the idea of magnetic stimulation and is able to give up to 50,000 currents in one session. This is equivalent to 50,000 kegel sit-ups or exercise. This amount is not humanly achievable under normal circumstances. The beauty of this chair is that it has various programmes. This means that we can set the chair to target different concerns for each and every user. The chair can help with erectile dysfunction as well as urinary incontinence. After a certain age, both men or women will experience urine leakage caused by urinary incontinence.

Firstly, you have to be comfortable with the doctor. You should communicate your issues in a way that the doctor understands. Apart from that, the doctor should be able to understand your needs as a patient and should be able to recommend treatment that helps to tackle your concerns. Of course, it has to also be within the patient's budget as well as their total experience. The protocol is that it has to be comfortable for the patient to go through. I think that it is very important. Secondly, the quality of the machine used matters. There are many versions of the same machine available.

I have not experienced any PDO thread rejection in my practice. PDO threads are usually free-floating, unanchored threads which may get dislodged, unlike anchored threads. However, if you are worried about the material involved causing the rejection. There are a number of reliable brand threads in Singapore that are made of PCL and PLLA. So you may consider using these instead.
