Hectic work schedules, long working hours together without a moment of relaxation/activity, a sedentary lifestyle, a poor diet, and other issues tend to cause obesity. Weight loss can result in a boost of self-esteem and overall feeling of well being. Unfortunately, losing significant weight can cause an unpleasant side effect in the form of sagging or loose skin.

Body lifting is also very helpful in improving the appearance of irregularities on the skin’s surface such as cellulite.
