Release Summary: The Harley Medical Group has reported a boom
in anti ageing operations as older workers look to compete with
their younger counterparts
Press
Release Body: The Harley Medical Group, the UK
largest cosmetic surgery provider, has revealed that youth boosting
ops are booming as older workers look to compete with their younger
counterparts. Figures show that bookings for surgery amongst 45-65
year olds doubled in 2008 and Botox treatments are up 51% year
on year.
Clinic
staff at the Harley Medical Group's 23 clinics
across the UK say they're increasingly seeing patients who want
to look as young as they feel, particularly as competition for
jobs becomes fiercer during the credit crunch.
Liz
Dale, Director of the Harley Medical Group, commented:
"People are looking for ways to keep themselves one step
ahead of their colleagues. Most patients think about cosmetic
surgery for many years and office competition simply acts
as a catalyst."
She
added: "It's not just older patients who cite this as
a reason, many of our patients at the City clinic, especially
men, are using cosmetic treatments such as Botox
to take years off their looks giving them increased confidence
and, they feel, an edge to their looks. It appears that, like
older workers, they feel it's important to invest in their looks,
despite cutting back across other areas."
