I posted this on the similar thread concerning facehugger removal. Considering that the face-hugger has highly (pressurized) acidic blood, I think a possible course of action would be to introduce a base (calcium hydroxide, sodium choride, etc.) into its blood stream to neutralize the acidity. Most likely, some serious experimentation would have to be done to ensure that the base isn't too strong, as the resultant interaction with the acid could cause just as much or even more damage than the acid itself. Similarly, the base probably would have to be stronger than everyday "arm & hammer" baking soda for it to effectively work. It is at this point , removal would be feasible without significant damage to the host.

I forgot to add that the resultant exothermic reaction when combining an strong acid with a equally strong base will produce some combination of metal salt & water build-up and I suspect this would by itself kill the facehugger (who appears to have a pressurized acid  blood system within it...)

my guess is it cant be done successfully. and by that I mean the host survives. the facehugger would be more than capable of killing the host if implantation was going to be interrupted. I agree with SM that ul have to wait till it falls off and dies on its own and then extract the chest burster

"S.M.:The answer would be no,you're an android with free will."

If that's the case I would do nothing and let nature take its course, recording the results.

Allow me to rephrase that.What would you do if you had behavior inhibitors?

Put the body in water and put it off. That way the acid won't burn the host and you can heal the cuts from the facehugger if it hurts the face.

Or if you can find the things brain and stick a needle in it with a drug or  toxin that will paralyze it

It'll strangle the host before you can get it off.

"Allow me to rephrase that.What would you do if you had behavior inhibitors?"

Try and prevent the host coming to harm, which I think would ultimately involve waiting for the hugger to drop off, then trying to remove the embryo.

Okay S.M. where do you go from there?

That sounds good. Assuming it was known what was happening, a surgical team could prep and plan while waiting for the face hugger to fall off. They would basically approach as an open heart surgery- old school sternum cutting. A problem would be establishing a definitive airway- that could be tricky and would seem the first priority since the airway would get smaller as the embryo rapidly grows.

Purvis swam 90 feet underwater with no apparent ill effects (despite the embryo restricting his lung capacity).

Interesting. Fiction and fact seem to have collided- Sci Fi.
