Speaking of faces, let’s face it. Corporate America likes to project a young face. It remains an ugly fact that age discrimination abounds in the American workplace. Plastic surgeons are reporting that about 22% of men and 15% of women are having cosmetic surgery for purposes or career and business. Some are in their thirties. The chief motivation is to compete successfully against more youthful employees in the workplace. So, what’s your opinion? Will it help?

U.S. government statistics show that an increasing number of people are seeking cosmetic surgery to get ahead in the workplace. Cosmetic procedures for men more than doubled from 2003 to 2004, and surgeons say they receive inquiries from real estate agents, lawyers, airline pilots and business executives and the like.
Other studies in the U.S. have indicated that attractive and younger-looking people are more successful and earn more.
