Top 5 Medspa Treatments to Start Before Summer

Top 5 Medspa Treatments to Start Before Summer

Summer is around the corner, and if you're like many of our clients at Colorado Beauty RN, you're already thinking ahead. You want to feel confident in your skin, ready to shed the layers, and step into sleeveless tops, sundresses, and swimsuits without hesitation. But here's the thing: the best summer glow-ups start well before the season arrives.

We're here to guide you through the top medspa treatments you should consider starting now to look and feel your absolute best by the time the weather heats up. These treatments are tried-and-true favorites among our Beauty Squad members and Castle Rock community, especially among women aged 35-55 who want real results without wasting time or money.

Let’s dive into our top five, why timing matters, and how to prep smart so you can truly Look Beautiful. Spend Smart.

1. Laser Hair Removal

Why start now: Laser hair removal requires a series of sessions (usually 6-8), spaced 4-6 weeks apart, to catch each hair during its active growth phase. Because hair grows in cycles, consistency is key to seeing long-lasting results. Starting in the spring allows you to complete enough sessions to enjoy smooth, low-maintenance skin just in time for summer vacations, pool days, and sleeveless outfits. Think of it as laying the foundation now so you can ditch the razor later.

Why it’s worth it:

• No more daily shaving or painful waxing appointments

• Say goodbye to razor burn, irritation, and ingrown hairs

• Long-term reduction in hair growth = more time back in your day

• Confidence in swimsuits, tanks, shorts, and close-up selfies

Our advanced laser system is designed to treat a wide range of skin tones and most hair types effectively and safely. What sets our technology apart is its built-in cooling mechanism, which helps soothe the skin during treatment and significantly reduces discomfort. Many clients say it feels like a quick snap or light warmth—totally manageable, even in sensitive areas.

Pro tip: Avoid sun exposure (natural or tanning beds) for at least two weeks before and after each session. Sun-exposed skin is more prone to sensitivity and pigment changes, so we always recommend wearing broad-spectrum SPF daily and covering treated areas when outdoors. SPF isn’t just a post-laser must—it’s a year-round skincare MVP.

Bonus tip: Laser hair removal can be done almost anywhere on the body—from underarms and bikini lines to legs, arms, and even the face. If you’re unsure where to start, we’ll help you choose the area that gives you the biggest confidence boost.

2. Botox or Dysport

Why start now: Neuromodulators like Botox and Dysport are incredibly popular for a reason—they deliver noticeable, confidence-boosting results with minimal downtime. These treatments work by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles that cause expression lines, such as crow's feet, forehead creases, and frown lines. However, they don't work instantly. It typically takes 5 to 14 days to see the full effects, and results last about 3 to 4 months. Starting your injections in the spring means your look will be fresh, smooth, and radiant just in time for the peak of summer—without the last-minute rush or appointment crunch.

Why it’s worth it:

• Softens fine lines and wrinkles caused by facial expressions (but doesn’t freeze your face!)

• Creates a more rested, youthful appearance without looking "overdone"

• Can subtly lift the brows, open up the eyes, and enhance facial symmetry

• Helps your makeup go on smoother and stay crease-free

• Boosts selfie confidence and overall radiance

At Colorado Beauty RN, we’re all about natural, personalized results. Our experienced nurse injectors take the time to understand your goals and facial anatomy to create a subtle, refreshed look that still looks like you—just a little more well-rested and polished.

Whether you're a seasoned Botox user or considering it for the first time, spring is a perfect time to begin or maintain your treatment plan. That way, you'll glide into summer events, vacations, and photos feeling confident and camera-ready.

Pro tip: If you're new to neuromodulators, we recommend booking a consultation first. We'll discuss your goals, answer any questions, and develop a customized plan that works with your lifestyle. Think of it as your glow-up roadmap!

3. Microneedling with Growth Factors or PRP

Why start now: Microneedling is a powerhouse treatment that stimulates your skin’s natural collagen and elastin production. While you may notice some improvement after a single session, the most transformative results occur gradually over several weeks. That’s why starting in the spring is key—you’ll be glowing, smoother, and more confident just in time for summer vacations, weddings, reunions, and all those sunny, makeup-optional days. For optimal results, we recommend a series of 3-4 treatments, spaced about 4 weeks apart.

Why it’s worth it:

• Smooths fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the mouth and eyes

• Softens acne scars and improves overall skin texture

• Boosts firmness and elasticity by triggering collagen production

• Minimizes pore size and evens out skin tone

• Enhances that fresh, healthy, "lit-from-within" glow

For an added boost, we often combine microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) or growth factors. PRP uses the regenerative power of your own blood to supercharge healing and skin renewal. It's especially popular among clients looking for next-level rejuvenation without fillers or more invasive options.

Clients love that this treatment enhances their natural beauty and makes them feel confident enough to go bare-faced all summer. Whether you’re looking to reduce signs of aging, improve texture, or just refresh your skin’s overall radiance, microneedling is one of our most effective and versatile options.

Pro tip: Post-treatment redness can resemble a light sunburn and typically resolves within 24-48 hours. Some light flaking or tightness may follow. We recommend scheduling your sessions around quieter weekends or downtime to let your skin recover and shine.

4. Chemical Peels

Why start now: Chemical peels are an incredibly effective way to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin, but timing matters—especially when it comes to sun exposure. While lighter peels can be performed year-round, medium-depth and deeper peels should be done in the spring before the UV index climbs and sun exposure becomes unavoidable. Starting now allows your skin to heal and reveal its freshest, most radiant layer just in time for summer, when you want to feel confident going bare-faced or with minimal makeup.

Why it’s worth it:

• Dramatically improves skin texture and tone by removing dead skin cells and surface buildup

• Fades sunspots, melasma, hyperpigmentation, and uneven coloration

• Reduces the appearance of fine lines and dullness

• Helps with active breakouts and post-acne marks

• Preps the skin to better absorb your at-home skincare products

We offer a range of professional-grade peels, from mild alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) peels for that quick "lunchtime refresh" to more intensive peels for deeper correction. Each peel is customized based on your skin type, goals, and lifestyle—because no two complexions are the same, and your treatment shouldn’t be either.

Many of our clients use peels as a seasonal reset, especially after the dry winter months have left their skin feeling dull or congested. You’ll love how much smoother, softer, and more luminous your complexion looks within days.

Pro tip: After a peel, your skin becomes temporarily more sensitive to sunlight, so post-treatment care is key. SPF is non-negotiable (daily, rain or shine!), and a wide-brimmed hat is your skin's stylish best friend. We also recommend gentle, hydrating skincare and avoiding harsh actives for a few days while your skin recovers.

5. Weight Loss Support with GLP-1 Injections

Why start now: Sustainable, healthy weight loss isn’t about crash diets or overnight fixes—it’s about consistency, smart planning, and personalized support. GLP-1 medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide have quickly become game-changers in weight management, but they work best when started early and paired with long-term lifestyle shifts. By starting your journey in the spring, you give your body time to adjust, build momentum, and start showing visible, confidence-boosting results right in time for summer.

Why it’s worth it:

• Helps regulate appetite and reduce cravings, making healthier choices feel more natural

• Promotes steady, consistent fat loss without the extreme highs and lows of fad dieting

• Improves insulin sensitivity and supports metabolic health

• Can lead to better sleep, more energy, and improved self-confidence

• Sets the tone for a more empowered, sustainable approach to long-term wellness

At Colorado Beauty RN, our weight loss programs are medically supervised, meaning your progress is monitored by experienced professionals who truly care about your success. We assess your unique health history, goals, and lifestyle, and create a plan that’s effective, manageable, and tailored just for you. No cookie-cutter programs here—just smart science and compassionate care.

We believe weight loss should never feel shame-based or overwhelming. It should feel supportive, empowering, and aligned with your goals. Our clients tell us all the time: this is the first time they’ve felt seen, understood, and successful.

Pro tip: For optimal results, ask about pairing your weight loss program with targeted wellness supplements through our Fullscript portal. We can recommend options to support metabolism, hydration, digestion, and energy levels—because when your body is supported from the inside out, everything works better.
