A biomedical stimulation lead for implanting in a living body having non-woven strands of fibrotic-inducing material attached to the distal tip of the lead for anchoring the lead in the body. The strands are sufficiently pliant to pull out of the fibrotic material along the path defined by the position of the strand within the fibrotic material, whereby the lead may be removed from the body with relatively minor trauma to body tissues.
