No, they're not overly common. Most PDO thread lift procedures go well. But when things go wrong, it can be quite scary. For example, the rare cases of bad reactions get a lot of attention because they are so concerning.
One horror story is that some people experienced severe pain and swelling that didn't go away for weeks. The threads seemed to be causing an internal reaction, and it made their daily lives very uncomfortable. Another is that in some cases, the threads migrated. Instead of staying in the intended position to lift the skin, they moved to other areas, causing an unnatural look on the face.
One horror story is when the threads got infected. A woman had a thread lift and soon after, the area around the inserted threads became red, swollen and extremely painful. It turned out to be an infection which required antibiotics and in some cases, removal of the threads.
Sure. There was a patient who experienced excessive pain during the thread lift. The pain didn't go away even after the procedure was over. It was a sign that something might have gone wrong during the insertion of the threads. Maybe the threads were placed too deep or in a wrong nerve area.
I heard of a ski lift where the cable snapped. The gondola carrying the skiers fell a short distance before getting caught on some trees. The people inside were bruised and shaken. It was a miracle that it didn't fall all the way to the ground. Since then, the ski resort has done extensive safety checks on all their lifts.
There are cases where the lip lift has led to a permanent change in the ability to move the lips properly. After the procedure, the person might find it hard to purse their lips, smile in a natural way, or even speak clearly. This could be due to damage to the nerves or muscles around the lips during the lip lift. For example, if the surgeon made an error in cutting or suturing, it could have affected the functionality of the lips, leaving the patient with a physical and emotional burden as they struggle to adapt to this new, unexpected situation.
Another horror story is about a person who had a lip lift and developed an infection afterwards. The infection spread and caused a lot of swelling and pain. Not only did they have to deal with the physical discomfort, but also the worry that the infection could cause permanent damage to their lips or face. They had to go through multiple rounds of antibiotics and additional medical treatments to try and fix the problem, and in the end, their lips still didn't look as good as they hoped before the lip lift.

Sure. There was a ski lift where the safety bar on one of the chairs didn't close properly. A skier slipped out during the ride and had to be rescued from a precarious position on the slope. It was a very dangerous situation.
