No matter how beautiful one might be, that person will never be perfect. One will always have a flaw or blemish somewhere. Even with all of our modern cosmetic surgeries and implants there may well be a mark against a person.    With clonal technology and genetic engineering a client's personal fantasy and ideal representation of beauty can be created in a lab. Yet there are some rules:   Having a clone requires pre-planning. Your clone needs to be grown.   Growing a clone requires the time and space, as well as the sophisticated equipment. Not to mention the support infrastructure.   It is an expensive process. Only the extremely wealthy can afford such services. The lowest level of cloning is offered to those with the very best insurance. Only then for replacement organs and body parts. Another way to live forever.   The clone is force grown. It will not have a developed brain and will be a in a near vegetable state.  To have a level of functionality one would have to either install a datajack and use a personafix chip to give the clone a basic personality and behavior set, or wire the clone to be slaved to a rigger control deck. The former is vastly cheaper.   Many corporations as well as the unscrupulous create such clones. The cost to benefit is not having to engage in recruitment, hiring, or deal with contractual obligations. Also any personal issues a person might have are of no concern. Additionally the  clones are considered to be private property with no basic human rights. When the clone is no longer of use due to the marketing campaign of film series being complete they can be auctioned off to the highest bidder. The new mail order bride for some.     >>>Jack Point<<<   >>>Street Doc<<< Most of the  clones are produced in  the various Chinese states. Often runners are paid to traffic people there for the purpose of obtaining "fresh, new and different" DNA samples. This year the "Look" appears to be a Danish/Korean mix. It is really  an ugly business. But the world is what it is.
