Las Vegas likes to deem it summer sometime in early May, but the official summer solstice happened June 21. Partake in one of the hottest pastimes in Vegas by baring it all, or at least as much skin as the law will allow. Here’s a look at the Haute 5 summer spa treatments that will have you summer ready in no time.
Cellulite Blaster
If you’re going to be showing that much skin, you need to make sure that not a bump of cellulite is showing. Run over to Qua Baths and Spa for the WellBox Wellness Program and restructure your skin’s connective tissue, stimulate blood and rid the lymphatic system of toxins with your personal endermologie machine. You get a demonstration of the WellBox to shape your body, reduce the appearance of cellulite and improve overall skin fitness. The 90-minute treatment includes a 30-day internal care kit that will complement this body-optimizing regime. The WellBox Wellness Program goes for $1,995.

Brazilian-Style Beauty
Many people who work in Vegas run around half-naked on the job. Remove all of that unwanted hair with a quick trip to Brazil at Box, the specialists in all things waxing from your nose to your toes. Men and women alike have all of their down-there hair removed at this adorable spa owned by Bree and Jason Goldwater. Brazilian waxes go for $65.

Best Face Forward
The dry climate of Vegas can leave your face thirsty for moisture. Give your skin a dose with the Aromatherapy Restorative Facial at Canyon Ranch SpaClub at the Venetian and the Palazzo. The facial reduces the signs of aging and repairs skin with natural oils of Inca inchi, larch extract, pomegranate and rosehip seed oil. The facial includes two masks, one with rose gel that hydrates and another with strawberry seed and frankincense to firm and plump. The 50-minute treatment is $160 for Tuesday through Thursday appointments and $170 for Friday through Monday appointments.

Wrap It Up
Scrub away dead skin and diminish the appearance of cellulite with the Emerald Oasis Body Treatment at the Spa at Trump. The 90-minute treatment uses a blend of mineral salts and precious emerald-infused oils that are massaged into the skin to remove impurities and dead skin cells while stimulating circulation. Following this deep cleansing and exfoliating scrub, a gold clay body mask is applied to purify the bod. Follow it up with a Sun Worshipper Body Wrap, a 30-minute treatment to rehydrate sun-exposed skin. It starts with a misting of lavender and sea algae extracts, followed by an aloe glaze body mask. While the healing properties of the desert aloe are absorbed into the skin, a therapist massages your hands and applies a foot treatment. The Emerald Oasis Body Treatment costs $275, and the Sun Worshipper Body Wrap goes for $95.

Instead of laying out in the sun and risking sun damage, go fake with custom airbrushing at Sunset Tan inside Drift Spa at Palms Place. Start with the Sunset Tan Scrub for $90 followed by either a VersaSpa spray tan for $45 or a custom airbrush tan for $75. Beforehand, spend some time in the only hammam in Vegas.
