We employ the gravitational decoupling approach for static and spherically symmetric systems to develop a simple and powerful method in order to (a) continuously isotropize any anisotropic solution of the Einstein field equations, and (b) generate new solutions for self-gravitating distributions with the same or vanishing complexity factor. A few working examples are given for illustrative purposes.
