Free Botox an upside to job loss?

One company is going to the extreme to fix the frowns of the newly unemployed — free Botox injections.

In exchange for your pink slip, D.C.-based medical group Reveal will fill in your worry lines, crow’s feet or furrows for free to the first 50 people at its Pentagon City location Friday.

Along with proof of termination, Reveal is also asking you to bring a resume to give to recruiters they’ll have on site. Though we’re not sure how great an interview you’d give immediately following a Botox procedure (think watery eyes, zero facial expression).

So why, exactly, is Reveal doing this?

The company says that looking good and a job interview go hand in hand, citing a dermatologic study that shows attractiveness — supposedly accrued by the muscle paralyzer — is an important quality to potential employers.
