As if unemployment lines weren’t bad enough, the recently laid–off also find themselves faced with lines of a different sort—“one week’s notice” worry lines, “furlough” furrows and “cut back” crow’s feet. Combine that with the lack of confidence thatoften accompanies unemployment, and the high level of competition when interviewing for a new job, and you’ve got the pink–slip equivalent of the perfect storm.

But on Friday, June 5, prospects will look a little brighter (not to mention smoother) for recently unemployed, active job seekers, as Washington, DC-based aesthetics leader Reveal™ offers them a Botox® Bailout. The first 50 individuals to arrive at Reveal’s Pentagon Row location can exchange resumes for free Botox® injections (not a bad tradeoff given that Botox® can range from $300-500).

The event will also feature recruiters to help job seekers network, answer questions, provide valuable tips, collect resumes and offer on–site interviews.

How can Botox® work hand-in-hand with a headhunter? A study published in the journal of Dermatologic Surgery found that women who had undergone Botox® injections in their brows, foreheads and eye wrinkles accrued higher attractiveness scores ­ a quality that lead researcher Steven Dayan says improves the first impressions people make when meeting a potential employer. Dayan, clinical assistant professor of surgery at the University of Illinois, also posits that the confidence inspired by Botox® could give job–seekers a confidence boost and competitive edge in the interview process.

WHEN: Friday, June 5 10:00 a.m. —­ 5:00 p.m.
Proof of unemployment (termination letter and/or unemployment check stub) and a current resume
will be requested before Botox® services are provided.
