Analysis

The aesthetic nose both improves the beauty of the pawn and replaces a missing nose. Thus, it is useful for social harmony by keeping opinions high, both by the +20 of having +1 beauty but also by avoiding the "Disfigured" opinion penalty a missing nose creates. This bonus and removal of a malus can be also help couple up a particular pawn or keep an existing couple together and happy by increasing their opinion of each other.

The gastro-analyzer and aesthetic nose cannot be installed on the same pawn.

Gastro-analyzer is an implant INTO the nose, while aesthetic nose REPLACES the nose. You can't install a gastro analyzer into a aesthetic nose; it's one or the other.

— Tynan Sylvester,  "Cannot replace destroyed gastro-analyzer" on Ludeon forums.

This is the only part incompatibility meaning, besides Wealth, there is no reason not to install this part on non-cooking pawns. However its small effect also make doing so a low priority.

There are conflicting reports that beauty improves trade prices, but these are currently unconfirmed.
