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

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.
Yes, collagen cross-linking can be safely performed after the initial surgery. Although this is rarely performed in isolation. Most commonly it is performed as an adjunctive procedure during enhancement surgery (after the primary surgery) if required.
