Baby-Boomers Vying for Jobs with Surgery
The older demographic job-seekers are looking to invest in plastic surgery with hopes of beating younger competitors out of the market. Unemployment is taking a serious toll on the baby-boomer population as vying for positions against thirtysomethings is proving to be quite difficult. Likewise US unemployment rates are still rising.
USA Today said, "It says that a survey by the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, found that 75% of physicians say they had treated patients who wanted plastic surgery to stay competitive in the workplace.''It's been rough,'' Jerry Johnson, an unemployed 55-year-old interior designer tells the paper. ''It's hard at this age. You kind of feel like a dinosaur.''
In fact, some plastic surgery clinics and surgeons are offering free treatment and procedures to out of work patients over 50. Other baby-boomers see cosmetic enhancements as an investment which will return them with a job or more pay.
