The Aesthetic Shaper gives a pawn that's been implanted with it a bonus of +1 to pawn beauty, corresponding to +20 opinion from other colonists.

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 Plasteel 15 Plasteel, Advanced component 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.

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.

Analysis

The aesthetic shaper improves the beauty of the pawn. Thus, it is useful for social harmony by keeping opinions high increasing the opinion of others towards this pawn by +20. This bonus can also help couple up a particular pawn or keep an existing couple together and happy by increasing their opinion of each other.

It can also be particularly useful to compensate for reduced beauty: it can cancel out the opinion malus from the ugly trait or the beauty reduction from the Content added by the Royalty DLC armorskin gland implant. When combined with the Content added by the Royalty DLC aesthetic nose, they can compensate for the opinion malus from the staggeringly ugly trait or the beauty reduction from the Content added by the Royalty DLC stoneskin gland implant.

Increasing a pawn's beauty above 2 seems to have no additional effect on opinion. For example, a beautiful pawn will have a +40 mood boost, with or without the aesthetic nose being installed, despite the pawn's beauty being 3 with the implant, which should result in a +60 opinion bonus otherwise. The same restriction also applies to the Content added by the Royalty DLC aesthetic nose. Also keep in mind that the opinion bonus from beauty is completely disregarded if the pawn is disfigured (e.g. due to injury on the eyes or ears). Beauty also never affects pawns who have the Kind or Psychopath traits.
