Progressive Care for Women's compassionate atmosphere stems from its four physicians, each of whom is either board-certified or board-eligible in obstetrics and gynecology. This knowledge has helped them specialize in reproductive health and apply powerful medical devices toward beauty concerns such as improving skin tone and texture. A resident nutritionist shares techniques for making healthy choices at mealtime, helping to healthily empower patients without exposing them to the Hulkifying effects of gamma rays.

At an intimate studio nestled in a stately brick building, the aesthetic experts of Pink Polish Lakeview refine hands, feet, and faces with an artistic touch. Guests soak their feet at one of six pedicure stations or soften their hands atop plush towels in the spa's eponymous hue before technicians crown their nails in standard lacquer, shellac polish, or a unique and colorful design. Customers can take advantage of the spa's BYOB policy during a nail or facial-waxing service by kicking back with a glass of wine or inventing their own Budweiser pedicure when the nail tech isn't looking.

During more than 20 years as a nail artist, Maureen Donlan has encountered dozens of women. She noticed how busy many of her clients were and how difficult it was for them to fit in a simple manicure during a hectic day. When she discovered permanent makeup, she knew it was the answer to many of these women's troubles—something that could let them get through an entire day without once checking their lipstick in the mirror. Maureen became certified in permanent makeup in 2004 and never looked back.

At Amazing Faces, Maureen offers today's women an alternative to traditional cosmetics. With safe and meticulous techniques, she adds permanent flair to lips, eyes, and eyebrows and performs corrective work and scar camouflaging to conceal evidence of past accidents or surgeries. She also boosts blinks with eyelash tinting and extensions to provide defense from lecherous butterflies. In addition, Maureen calls upon her past to shape and groom nails before coating them in standard or gel polishes.
