An application of lacquer is usually the cherry on the cake at the end of a pedicure appointment, right?

I'm well-versed in how to prep your feet for a pedicure, but they required something more intensive than a salon slot and a foot scrub. If a traditional pedicure is akin to brushing your teeth, a Margaret Dabbs medical pedicure is the foot equivalent of a deep clean with the dental hygienist.
