They are choosing cosmetic surgery to look younger because the job market is very\u00a0competitive. The bankers are choosing nose jobs, wrinkle fillers, liposuction, and botox\u00a0injections\u00a0to slow the effects of age.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Operations increased to more than 22,000 last year, and both men and women are getting cosmetic surgery. In fact, men make up eleven percent of this total, and the percentage has increased every year.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Mel Braham,\u00a0chairman\u00a0of the Harley Medical Group, said that more men realize they need to look good. He explained that older men worry about their jobs,\u00a0especially\u00a0if they are 50 years old but look like they are 60. That person doesn&#8217;t want a younger person to take his job. Braham also added that men should start these\u00a0treatments\u00a0early to look younger and healthier for a longer period of time.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Most men are asking to change the shape of their nose or get rid of their love handles. But there may soon be a remedy for baldness too. This would\u00a0expand\u00a0the business of cosmetic surgery for men even more.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>At the moment, prices range from \u00a3200 for botox injections to \u00a36000 for a facelift.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: headsupenglish.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Discussion Questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.
