Are shaping underwear effective?

If we want to shape our body through exercise, we actually need a lot of perseverance to persist. So many friends will think of other ways, such as using shaping underwear.

Most of the body shaping garments on the market are made of strong elastic fibers. They achieve the effect of "body beautification" by gathering excess fat in certain parts of the body to certain areas, making the breasts round and full and the body upright.
