Task3: A View of Happiness

Script

Men are turning to plastic surgery and cosmetic 1 procedures to brighten up their appearances at a faster rate than women, according to a survey released on Wednesday.

Men’s use of fat injections to soften 2 deep wrinkles leaped 47 percent last year from the previous year. Women’s use of the injections fell 36 percent, according to a survey by the American Academy of Facial and Plastic Reconstructive Surgeons.

Men’s use of botox injections to eliminate frown lines rose 88 percent, while women’s botox use fell 8 percent.

And for smoothing skin, the use of laser resurfacing among men rose 13percent, the survey showed. Meanwhile, women’s use of laser resurfacing dropped 38 percent during the same time period.

The number of men getting nose jobs rose 47 percent, while the number of women doing so rose 5 percent.

Typically, men and women visiting plastic surgeons for cosmetic reasons were age 40 to 59.

The study said 44 percent of men and 57 percent of women tell their doctor that looking younger is the reason they are choosing cosmetic surgery.

By about 18 percent, men are more likely than women to say they want facial cosmetic surgery for work-related reasons. 

The study was conducted by written questionnaires from January 20 to March 3 among more than 2,600 members of the association, who focus on treatment of the face, head, and neck.

By comparison, in the previous year, women’s use of botox rose 60 percent while men’s fell 14 percent; women’s use of laser resurfacing rose 13 percent while men’s fell 19 percent; women’s use of fat injections fell17 percent and men’s fell 54 percent.
