No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

It depends on the implant.
Generally, they'll be placed in a way that avoids interfering with nerves or blood supply. When it does happen, that's a failure, not a normal part of the process.
Something like facial implants are usually solid (always, afaik, but I ain't sith enough to deal in absolutes) rather than injected. You do have injections for cosmetics, but those tend to be into the lips almost exclusively.
The kind of injections that go into lips wouldn't spill out after an injury. They use materials that aren't liquid. Even the grotesque versions you see sometimes aren't just bags of liquid under the skin.
Where you run into liquids, it's going to be breasts and asses for the most part. The saline based ones will spill out if the "bag" they're in ruptures. It's just salty water, more or less, inside a sac.
Silicone implants are more of a gel, and thus wouldn't "spill" in the same way, but if the container is ruptured can seep out into the body. It's kinda like a thick jello in consistency, to use your own example.
But it is difficult to rupture the containers. They can be pierced, obviously, but enough force to just pop one is also enough force that you have other things to worry about.
Now, all of that assumes legal procedures. There are people out there that will essentially shoot caulk into their victims. And you'll find some fucked up fakers that will do incorrect versions of otherwise safe-ish medical procedures, like transferring one's fat from one place in the body to another.
And it's important to note that there are procedures out there that do involve stuff that might match what you're asking a bit closer, but they're not exactly common
I think I understand now, dang, this is a pretty deep topic. Did not know that different parts of the body usually use different materials, but that makes sense I think
