id be… surprised if they had managed to get it under the muscle layer in the hand that’s quite the feat and a lot of pain (relative)
by the looks of it they put the implant in a little lower, so i think it might be just sitting super deep in that skin-void in P0.
either way if its super difficult to communicate with removal might be an option
or just buy an install a new implant in a different location that is less fleshy than p0.
removal is “easy” in the sense there is no biobond melding your skin with the tag so it should just slip out when a tunnel is created with a scalpel, but if its deep in there even without being in the muscle. its going to be right uncomfortable experience so it may be best to let sleeping lions lay and use it as just a HF implant & get another for your LF purposes.
xem’s are great and remarkably cheap for what they are and they have the added bonus of not being a dual-tech implant so they don’t cause issues with multi technology readers (IE HID MultiClass readers as they poll HF first if HF is enabled making NEXT’s impossible to use on them )
