Aesthetic shaper
A sophisticated package of hormonal and mechanite influences shapes the muscles and fat on the body, adding non-functional aesthetic tissue where needed to achieve a desired appearance. The implant can be configured to form various body shapes according to the user's taste - or that of their partner.

The aesthetic shaper is an artificial body part that improves the beauty of the implanted pawn.
Acquisition
Aesthetic shapers can be crafted at a Fabrication bench once the Flesh shaping research project has been completed. The required techprint can be obtained either by trade or completing quests for the Empire. They require 15 Plasteel, 3 Advanced components, 26,000 ticks (7.22 mins) of work, and a Crafting skill of 8.
Summary
The aesthetic shaper is a visceral implant that does not replace any natural body part. The aesthetic shaper increases a pawn's beauty by +1, which increases the pawn's market value, and also increases other pawn's opinion of them by +20. Note that all pawn beauty modifiers are additive and that a net change in pawn beauty above +2 or below -2 will have no further effect. See pawn beauty for more details.
The aesthetic shaper does not add any stat offsets to the pawn other than beauty.
As an artificial part, aesthetic shapers will give a mood buff to anyone with the Body modder trait, and a mood penalty to anyone with the Body purist trait. They will also satisfy colonists with a transhumanist ideology.
Installation

Removing the part requires 2,500 ticks (41.67 secs) of work, 1x medicine of herbal quality or better, and a Medical skill of 5.
If the operation fails, the part has a chance[What Chance?] to be destroyed.
Analysis
The aesthetic shaper improves the beauty of the pawn, increasing opinion of others. It is useful for social harmony, as higher opnion makes pawns less likely to insult each other and start social fights. It can help an existing couple together, counteract the negative beauty from implants like the stoneskin gland, fight traits like Annoying voice, and counteract negative opinions from ideoligion
. Increased beauty will also increase the chance of rebuffs from taken pawns (unless ideoligion permits multiple spouses). It stacks with the aesthetic nose, though beauty has no impact beyond +2.
However, this implant costs advanced components to make, which could otherwise be used for other bionics. Other implants, like the bionic eye or bionic arm, have a stronger, tangible impact on pawn performance. Therefore, aesthetic shapers should be a low priority to build, only used if found or if most other bionics have already been installed. While it is cheaper while pleasing body modders all the same, the net +1-2 mood after having a single part like a denture is generally not worth the cost.
Note that is a pawn is disfigured (e.g. missing a nose, ears, etc.), then all beauty bonuses are ignored. Beauty also never affects other pawns who have the Ascetic, Kind, or Psychopath traits.
