This is particularly important to young people, with 39% of 18-24 year olds asked saying that made them fell better about themselves, compared to 11.6 % of over 55’s agree.

Respondents reported that problems areas such as stomachs, arms and cellulite all contributed to their lack of self-esteem. Three in ten said being asked if they’d lost weight made them feel good, and a third of people said if they could instantly change something about themselves, it would be their weight.

As part of its Feel good campaign, Transform Cosmetic Surgery called upon professor, Dr Todd Kashdan to review the results of the nationwide research, who found taking care of the body is key to feeling good.

Statistics show that beauty treatments and looking good is a key element to how people feel about themselves.  Therapeutic and holistic remedies, help to counter the stresses and strains of everyday life, with massage known to release endorphins amino acids that work as the body’s natural painkiller.
