How americans really view aging.

Getting elder can become a problem. You don't look like you used to, your hair turn grey and start to appear wrinkles in your skin. Your face change and it seems that your body is not the same.
All this change that comes like a process of the life and it's the most natural thing we have but some of us doesn't want to accept the real change of their bodies. Because of that, in the last years have been increasing the big industry of the Botox and the plastic surgery that can bring us the face we like to have instead of the old and wrinkled one. With plastic surgery we also can "improve" the parts of our body we don't like or we don't accept.
But it seems to be something that comes more with women that with man: he 56% of the women are worried about their physique against the 34% of men. For this reason, women are more likely to try anti-aging products and again the women are more prone o considered anti-aging injections or plastic surgery. 

The more expensive procedures are the chin enlargement, the neck liposuction and upper eyelid lift that are between 3000 and 4000 dollars. 

But is not only what people think about their own changes but about what others thinks about people appearance. When we see the men with gray hair we use to use to grade him like "distinguished". But by the other way, when we see women with grey hair we use to see her like "old women". 
There is something that both sex agree with: sex improve with age. 

How Americans Really View Aging
I think that all this is part of the new society who is always looking for beauty and appearance in people instead of other kinds of virtues like intelligence or culture. But I think that the plastic surgery has to improve a lot to achieve the real results they want to sell, I mean, all the people who have tried to change themselves by surgery or botox has to end up worst that they look at first. And then, when people look at you, instead of recognising your hide of age marks they continue criticizing because you are not "natural" or because you have pay to much attention to social standards of beauty. 
Both if you try to "improve" yourself or if you don't you will be criticized by the others, so I think it's better to be judged for being myself that be judged for trying to be other that also looks worst.
