If you are one who loves to binge on TLC's medical reality shows, here's good news for you. The channel is all set to launch a unique show titled 'Body Parts,' and the first looks are promising, to say the least.

The upcoming TLC show will follow some of the worst cases taken on by anaplastologist Allison Vest. The talented doctor has mastered the art of making state-of the-art prosthetics for her differently-abled patients who often present with missing hands, ears, and even noses. Sneak peeks show at least four people who come to the doc after having lost body parts due to various reasons like dog attack and severe pneumonia. Vest's prosthetics are so realistic that patients often marvel over the accuracy of the skin color and the hair and vein replacement on the custom products.

The series will add to TLC's already impressive repertoire of popular shows like 'Dr Pimple Popper', 'Unexpected', and 'Outdaughtered.' Read on to know more about 'Body Parts'.
