The American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Gets the Skinny on Men's Grooming Habits. While it may not have gone that far yet, men are becoming more comfortable with admitting that they are taking necessary steps to refining their looks. Other recent research indicates that an increased number of men are undergoing or at least considering facial plastic surgery. It was once taboo for men to admit to having a little work done - but times have changed.

Hair dyeing knows no age restrictions as men both young and old are coloring their hair.
Additionally, the survey reports that exercise and dieting play an important role for men when it comes to enhancing their appearance. While some men are taking small steps to maintaining a youthful, radiant glow, a growing number of men are opting for cosmetic surgery to tailor their look for a workplace where appearances do count. Many men are discovering that facial plastic surgery can help them look as good as they feel - and perhaps give them a competitive edge in the job market.
