This procedure ensures the corpse fits properly into a standard casket and appears more aesthetically pleasing during viewings. While oversized caskets exist, families occasionally request fat excision to avoid higher costs. It’s a real, albeit rare, practice that raises questions: why make the dead “look better” when they’re gone?
