There’s a buzzy new diva in the world of cosmetic injectables and she’s quick, easy to recover from … and came from a dead body. Indeed, people are injecting themselves with fat from corpses in order to pump up their physiques, and it’s catching on more than you would think.
Oh, I hold no illusions about what some women (and men!) will put on or in their bodies for vanity’s sake. Especially now we are in 2026 and have the modern cult of the ‘influencer’ to contend with…
But where on earth are they getting this stuff?
When individuals donate their organs, tissue banks often collect abdominal fat cells, too. Companies then purchase that fat from the tissue banks and process it for cosmetic use.
... the process has fueled longstanding concerns about whether donors know how their remains will be used.
The answer is ‘No, they don’t and what’s more, they don’t have a say in it either'.
The aesthetics of capitalism play a big role in why we’ll likely see more and more people seeking out this procedure.
Oh, of course!
The downtime is reportedly minimal, and many are opting for it because that means they don’t lose any productivity hours. Business Insider spoke to plastic surgeons who have completed a combined 75 procedures with alloClae since it became available early last year, and they described “wealthy executives and corporate types, booking 6am visits so they could make it to work by 7”, and using the filler to look better in their work clothes.
Boo! Hiss!
Nobody wants to get old, and they damn sure don’t want to look it. Anti-ageing is a billion-dollar business and the people seeking cosmetic procedures are skewing younger and younger.
And yet, it's all for nothing. Because they are inevitably aging no matter what they do...
