"Cosmetic surgeons have turned to using a "fat filler" harvested from dead people in order to give patients new breasts, sexier buttocks and other body contouring tweaks, according to reporting by Business Insider - in a practice that not even "Frankenstein" author Mary Shelley could have dreamed up in her day."
""People are paying for the convenience," New York City plastic surgeon Sachin Shridharani told the site."
""As of the beginning of 2026, we'll be producing a ton more alloClae so that we can service the real demand that's out there," Tiger Aesthetics preident Caroline Van Hove told BI."
AlloClae is a fat filler produced by Tiger Aesthetics from fat cells harvested from deceased donors' abdomens. Plastic surgeons use it for breast augmentation, buttock enhancement, and other body contouring because it reduces healing time and often avoids general anesthesia. Prices reported range from $10,000 to $100,000 per procedure, reflecting high demand and convenience. The rise of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs has increased requests for contouring by causing facial and body sagging after weight loss. Tissue banks obtain donated bodies and harvest abdominal fat cells, which companies like Tiger Aesthetics process into an injectable product with planned production increases by 2026.
