New Skin Laser Clinic, Des Plaines

Rather than giving people new skin—a service generally reserved for tech-industry moguls—New Skin Laser Clinic helps clients make the most of the body they were born with. Owned by an experienced spa-industry professional named Cindy Oh, the clinic begins each treatment by assessing individual skin-care goals and needs. It then administers services like rejuvenating facials and laser therapies. The latter, which rids the body of everything from unwanted hair to unwanted fat, offers an innovative approach to age-old aesthetic concerns. Throughout all of these services, the clinic's professionals use only animal-friendly products, including top-shelf organic skin-care formulas from Japan.
