Is there a point in losing body fat if you’re already at ~15% or lower?

We’ve all seen the impressive transformation photos of someone losing dozens of pounds and how much better it made them look. However, will you still see any benefit from cutting body fat levels if you’re already slim? Cutting to 10% should increase your bone visibility but I haven’t seen enough pics of this to confirm
 
Yes, but it varies from person to person, as it depends on fat storage genetics. Some people can look leaner than others, even though they are at the same body fat. The only way for you to see if it's worth it is by reaching 10% body fat.

dont excuse your laziness
 
if you have face fat then yes
 
I'm at 15% and I have lean shoulders and chest but my love handle and cheeks are still fat
 
Yes, always.

Also tis not only about bodyfat, but water retention too (caused by salt and carbs).

I’m 15% now and I do believe I looked much better at 12%
 
Your body fat weight depends on your fat free mass weight. Percentages mean nothing.

140lbs @ 12% will look better than 220lbs @ 12% because theres less overall fat
 
It varies from person to person depending on how their genetics store fat. Sometime you've lost all the facial fat you can at 15%, and going lower won't help, sometimes you need to go lower to something like 8%-9% to see maximum results.

If you're never been to single digit BF percentages then you won't know for sure. I recommend you at least try to get there and take progress pictures to determine whether or not there is a difference, and if there is, whether it's worth maintaining it year round.

This guy did a video on how drastically his face changed going from 18% to 7%.
