How to prepare your body for summer?
How much time each stage of preparation needs:
-
Laser hair removal – a series of 5-8 treatments at 6-8 week intervals, meaning a plan calculated in months.
-
Capillary closure – an average of 1-4 treatments at monthly intervals, planned outside the sunny season.
-
At-home care – hydration, exfoliation, and moisturizing work from the first week and throughout the season.
-
Body treatments – LPG Endermologie, carboxytherapy, pressotherapy, and body wraps require a series; at Ambasada Urody, their sequence is determined during a free consultation.
-
The last week – pedicure, eyebrow and eyelash styling, waxing, and banquet treatments that do not require recovery time.

Where to start - body assessment and setting priorities
Winter leaves traces that are not visible on a daily basis: less outdoor activity, a heavier diet around the holidays, and months without sun. Start with a calm review: cellulite may have appeared on your thighs (it happens even to professional athletes), capillaries might have broken from the frost, or perhaps you have been thinking about permanent hair removal for a long time.
Seeing yourself every day, it is easy to overlook changes, so write them down on a piece of paper – this is the starting point for selecting skincare, treatments, and daily habits.
How to set realistic goals before the summer season
A realistic goal is one that fits into the calendar. Laser hair removal requires a series of 5-8 treatments at 6-8 week intervals, which in practice means several months of work. Laser closure of blood vessels takes an average of 1-4 treatments at monthly intervals, and after the last session, a minimum of four weeks of UV protection is still required – so the last treatment must fall well before the first day on the beach.
Count the weeks backward from your departure date and only then set your list of goals. Checking off subsequent points gives satisfaction and shows how much work you already have behind you.
How to plan actions - at-home and in-office together
The sequence matters more here than the list itself. Some treatments require a break from the sun and physical exertion, while others show results only after a few weeks. If you want to address both cellulite and vascular issues at the same time, schedule vascular treatments first.
After them, it is best to avoid intense exertion for about a month – this is a good time to implement a skincare routine and get your diet in order, adding workouts later. When you don't know where to start, a consultation with a specialist will outline the steps and select methods for your specific goal.
Body hydration and sugar elimination in the fight against cellulite
The basics work from day one and cost nothing but consistency.
Start with three things you can implement today:
-
Water – minimum 2 liters a day, no sugary drinks. Hydration affects skin elasticity and limits water retention in tissues.
-
Less sugar – limiting sweets and processed food slows down fat accumulation and supports the fight against cellulite.
-
Balanced meals – vegetables, protein, and healthy fats provide the skin with the nutrients needed for regeneration.
Strength training and HIIT intervals for sculpting the body
Compound exercises – squats, plank, deadlifts – build muscles under the skin and change the shape of the body. HIIT accelerates fat burning and improves circulation, while swimming or running complement the plan with an endurance element.
The optimal frequency is 3-4 times a week, with consistency over a few months giving more than a few exhausting sessions right before a trip.
Dry body brushing and alternating showers
Perform brushing before a shower, on dry skin, using movements from the feet towards the heart. It improves lymphatic drainage, smooths the skin, and prepares the epidermis for lotion, which is then absorbed faster. Cold water at the end of a shower stimulates circulation and tightens the epidermis, and the effect of contrast showers – alternating warm and cold water – is visible on the skin's condition after just a few weeks.
Exfoliating dead skin with coffee and sugar scrub
Exfoliating 1-2 times a week, in circular motions, evens out the surface of the epidermis. Thanks to this, the tan goes on evenly, and cosmetics absorb better. Coffee scrub works well on the thighs and buttocks, sugar scrub on the whole body, and salt scrub on rougher areas, such as elbows and knees.
Do it 2-3 days before planned sunbathing – freshly exfoliated skin is more sensitive to the sun and needs a moment to calm down. In a salon, the same effect is provided by body scrubs: salt, sugar, algae, aromatherapy, or cream.
Intensive hydration and regeneration of the hydrolipid barrier
Shea butter, plant oils – almond or jojoba – and lotions with hyaluronic acid and urea rebuild the hydrolipid barrier and improve skin elasticity. Moisturized skin tolerates the sun better and reacts with irritation less often after hair removal. Apply products daily after bathing, to slightly damp skin – active ingredients then penetrate deeper.
LPG Endermologie and body wraps for skin laxity
Home care works faster when supported by a clinic. LPG Endermologie is a patented vacuum massage that naturally and non-invasively allows for skin firming, body fat reduction, cellulite smoothing, and lymphatic drainage supporting the elimination of swelling.
Body treatments worth considering before the season:
-
Body masks – specialized masks with active ingredients of natural origin: algae, clays, mud, peat, or plant extracts.
-
Fango and algae wrap – mud and peat wraps as well as algae wraps improve microcirculation and stimulate lymphatic drainage, reducing swelling and the feeling of heavy legs.
-
Pressotherapy – compression lymphatic drainage; for swelling and heavy legs, a series of 6-10 treatments is performed.
Carboxytherapy involves administering carbon dioxide under the skin – it improves microcirculation, oxygenates tissues, and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which is why it is often chosen for cellulite, stretch marks, and body skin laxity. The method is selected individually: it is determined by the type of problem, its severity, and skin condition.
Collagen supplementation and a diet rich in beta-carotene
Beta-carotene from carrots, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, and spinach improves skin tone and supports its natural resistance to the sun. Collagen in supplementation works long-term – the effect on skin density and structure builds up over the following weeks, so start it together with the rest of the plan even before the season starts.
Complement it with vitamin C, essential for collagen synthesis. Vitamins A, C, and E protect the skin from free radicals and support regeneration after sun exposure.
UV protection and the use of SPF filters against photoaging
SPF 50 for the face and a minimum of 30 for the body is a daily essential – in the city just as on the beach. Apply the cream 15-30 minutes before going out into the sun and reapply every 2 hours. Photoaging is responsible for discoloration, loss of elasticity, and deeper wrinkles – this is damage that no treatment can reverse.
After laser treatments, the skin is extra sensitive, so sunscreen stops being a matter of choice. After sunbathing, reach for cosmetics with aloe and panthenol, which support the regeneration of the epidermis.
Hybrid pedicure and last-minute banquet treatments
The last week before leaving is just finishing touches: no treatment series, no downtime.
For the last few days before leaving, plan:
-
Gel manicure and pedicure – well-groomed hands and feet will last the entire vacation without touch-ups.
-
Eyebrow and eyelash tinting, lash lift or lamination – a defined look without makeup, even after a full day in the water.
-
Lycon wax or sugar paste hair removal – at least 24 hours before your first sun exposure.
-
Red carpet treatments – instant refresh and the effect of radiant skin without downtime, designed specifically for situations like a wedding, photo shoot, or trip.
-
Hydro-cleansing – Hydrafacial combines deep cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, and skin nourishment; thanks to hydrodermabrasion and diamond microdermabrasion, the complexion is cleansed without irritation, and the results are visible right away.
-
Bronzing lotion – the evening before departure, for a healthy skin tone from day one; this is a product for home use.
Plan your preparations for summer today
Skin, silhouette, and fitness respond to consistency – every week of work shows later on the beach. Start with one step: hydration, a peel, or a consultation where someone will set the order of treatments for you. The earlier you start, the more options stay in play. You already know how to prepare your body for summer – there is one last thing left.
Count down the weeks from your departure date, enter the treatments into your calendar, and turn your wishlist into a concrete schedule – summer starts now!
Most frequently asked questions about preparing the body for summer
Does laser hair removal need to be paused for the summer holidays?
Mediostar Next Pro does not take a summer break – thanks to two wavelengths, it handles tanned skin and various skin types, so the series does not need to be suspended for the summer. The requirement remains SPF protection after each session and regular skin moisturizing between visits
Will in-clinic treatments replace diet and training?
Treatments support the work you do on a daily basis and do not replace it. LPG Endermologie, carboxytherapy, or pressotherapy improve skin firmness, microcirculation, and drainage, but body shape is built by strength training, and the result is maintained by a stable diet
What to do when there are two weeks left until the trip?
You won't have time to do a series of laser treatments anymore, so focus on what gives immediate results: banquet treatments, water cleansing, waxing or sugaring at least 24 hours before sun exposure, a pedicure, and lash styling. Start the rest of the plan right after you return, so you won't be chasing the calendar next year.
Which effects will remain after the season, and what needs to be repeated?
Laser hair removal after a full series provides permanent hair reduction, so it is an investment measured in years. Vascular treatments remove existing lesions, and improvement is visible already after the first session. Home care, sun protection, diet, and training do not have a one-time version – it is continuous work
We recommend
Precise vascular therapy restoring the skin's even tone and physiological balance
Laser vessel closure and erythema reduction is an advanced aesthetic medicine procedure that effectively eliminates chronic redness and visible telangiectasias, while improving the skin's quality and resilience. The therapy is based on the selective action of vascular laser light that targets hemoglobin, enabling precise treatment without damaging surrounding tissues.
The result is not only a reduction in vascular lesions but also a calming of the skin and restoration of its healthy, even appearance.
How does the laser treatment for removing erythema and facial vessels work?
The mechanism is based on the phenomenon of selective photothermolysis, which allows precise targeting of altered blood vessels.
selective absorption of energy by hemoglobin → laser energy concentrates solely in the blood vessels, without damaging the skin
controlled heating of the vessels → they contract and are permanently closed
- gradual elimination of vessels by the body → closed vessels undergo natural resorption processes
- reduction in vessel reactivity → decreased tendency to dilate and form erythema
- skin biostimulation → stimulation of fibroblasts to produce collagen and improve skin structure
The procedure works on multiple levels – it eliminates existing lesions while strengthening the skin, reducing the tendency for new ones to form.
Who is the laser treatment for removing erythema and facial vessels recommended for?
The therapy is designed for people with vascular issues and overreactive skin.
- persistent erythema (including episodic flushing)
- visible vessels and "spider veins" (telangiectasias)
- vascular and sensitive skin
- skin hyperreactivity to external factors
- redness associated with photoaging
- vascular changes of hormonal or genetic origin
- inflammatory conditions and chronic skin irritations
The procedure also serves as an excellent preventive measure for skin prone to erythema.
Areas of application
The treatment can be performed in various areas of the face, depending on the location of the lesions.
- cheeks
- nose
- chin
- forehead
- area around the sides of the nose
The precision of the technology allows work even in the most demanding and sensitive areas.
Effects of the laser treatment for removing erythema and facial vessels
Results are visible gradually and have both aesthetic and functional benefits.
- reduction of erythema – the skin regains an even tone, free of chronic redness
- closure of vessels – visible "spider veins" disappear or become unnoticeable
- calming of the skin – reduced hyperreactivity and tendency to irritation
- improvement of skin texture – thanks to collagen stimulation, the skin becomes smoother and firmer
- evening of skin tone – the complexion acquires a healthy, radiant appearance
- strengthening of blood vessel walls – less tendency for new lesions to develop
The final effect is calm, resilient, and visually rejuvenated skin.
Treatment frequency (therapy plan)
Therapy is planned individually, depending on the severity of lesions and skin reactivity.
- recommended series → 2–4 treatments
- intervals between treatments → about every 3–4 weeks
- maintenance treatments → as needed based on the skin's needs
Effects accumulate gradually, and each subsequent session enhances the therapeutic result.
Why choose this treatment at Ambasada Urody Clinic & Spa?
The effectiveness of vascular therapies depends not only on the technology but above all on experience and precision of execution.
- advanced medical-grade laser systems → guarantee of safety and high efficacy
- individual skin diagnostics → parameter selection tailored to the vessel type and degree of erythema
- experienced specialists → precise work minimizing the risk of complications
- holistic approach → possibility to combine vascular therapy with skin-strengthening treatments
- procedures based on clinical knowledge → maximization of effects and durability of results
At Ambasada Urody, vascular therapy is not only an aesthetic treatment but a considered therapeutic process aimed at real improvement in skin quality and the patient's quality of life.
Removal of vascular lesions treatments developed by Palomar Medical enable non-invasive alternative to lighten spider veins and vascular networks without the need for incisions, with minimal discomfort and ensuring an immediate return to everyday functionality.
Palomar's patented technology uses pulses of laser light of proper selected wavelengths. The laser beam penetrates the skin, reaching only to the blood vessels without damaging the skin. The light energy is absorbed by the red blood pigment - hemoglobin and changed into heat, raising the temperature of the blood. When the blood reaches a sufficiently high temperature, it coagulates and destroy the vessel wall, which is eventually removed from the organism.
Laser treatment is recommended for people suffering from disorders of the blood vessels, ranging from small spider veins called telangiectasia or cracked capillaries to reticulated disorders and large maroon spots. It eliminates the disorders present since birth, and the ones resulting with age under the influence of the environment, for example exposure to the sun.
Express effectiveness, uncompromising comfort and lasting results
The Mediostar Next Pro laser redefines the standards of body epilation – offering exceptional treatment speed, high effectiveness and maximum comfort, even on large areas such as the legs, back or arms. It is a premium-class technology created for patients who expect real results in the shortest possible time – without pain, irritation and seasonal limitations.
The treatment is not only an alternative to traditional hair removal methods, but their definitive replacement – in a permanent, safe and predictable way.
How does Mediostar Next Pro laser hair removal work?
Laser hair removal is a process based on the precise interaction of light with the hair structure. In the case of Mediostar Next Pro, advanced technological solutions have been used to increase the effectiveness and safety of the treatment.
- selective photothermolysis – the laser energy is absorbed by melanin in the hair → controlled damage to the hair follicle occurs without affecting surrounding tissues
- action in the anagen phase – the laser is effective only on hairs in the active growth phase → therefore a series of treatments is necessary
- dual wavelength (810 nm + 940 nm) → enables work at different depths and on different hair types, including deeply rooted hairs
- gradual miniaturization of the hair → each subsequent treatment weakens the hair structure until its permanent disappearance
It is precisely the biological specificity of hair growth that means a single treatment is not a solution – only an appropriately planned series provides a lasting and predictable effect.
Innovative XL handpiece – the largest treatment area
For body epilation, not only effectiveness but also treatment time is crucial. Mediostar Next Pro has been designed to minimize it without loss of quality.
- the largest available treatment window → enables working on large areas in a short time
- high power and uniform energy emission → guarantee effectiveness even with fast operation
- for example: whole legs can be done in about 15 minutes → without compromising results
- ideal solution for busy people → maximum efficiency with minimal time
This is a technology that truly adapts to the patient's lifestyle – rather than the other way around.
Painlessness thanks to advanced cooling – Peltier element
Treatment comfort is one of the key elements of therapy – especially for large body areas. Mediostar Next Pro eliminates discomfort thanks to an innovative cooling system.
- real-time contact cooling → an aluminum probe integrated with the handpiece
- "freezing" the epidermis before, during and after the pulse → minimization of pain sensations
- protection of the skin against overheating → increased treatment safety
- no need for anesthesia → natural comfort of the therapy
As a result, the treatment is well tolerated even in more sensitive areas, such as the armpits or inner thighs.
Who is the diode laser treatment intended for?
Body laser hair removal is a solution for people who expect a lasting effect and want to definitively end the problem of unwanted hair.
- people with excessive or troublesome hair growth → women and men
- people with ingrown hairs → especially in the armpit, thigh and back areas
- people with irritation after shaving or waxing → bumps, stinging, discoloration
- active people → sports, travel, lack of time for regular hair removal
- people who value convenience and aesthetics → smooth skin without daily effort
- people expecting lasting results → instead of temporary methods
This is a treatment for people who no longer want to "manage hair", but to get rid of it effectively.
Areas of application
Mediostar Next Pro epilation can be performed on all body areas, maintaining full safety and effectiveness. The wide range of applications allows a comprehensive approach to the aesthetics of the entire body.
Types of skin and hair
The effectiveness of the treatment depends on proper skin and hair qualification. Mediostar Next Pro significantly extends therapy possibilities, however professional assessment remains key.
Types of skin:
- phototype I–III → highest treatment effectiveness
- phototype IV → very good results with appropriate parameters
- phototype V → therapy possible with individual qualification
- sensitive skin → tolerates the treatment well thanks to cooling
- tanned skin → possibility of year-round treatments if safety rules are followed
Types of hair:
- dark and coarse hair → best response to the treatment
- medium hair → very good results with a series
- deeply rooted hair → effective reduction thanks to appropriate penetration
- light hair → limited effectiveness → require individual assessment
A reliable qualification allows achieving maximal results without creating unrealistic expectations.
Effects of Mediostar diode laser body epilation treatments
The effects of laser epilation accumulate gradually, but are lasting and clearly noticeable in daily functioning.
- permanent hair reduction – up to 90% after a full series → hairs stop regrowing or are almost invisible
- skin smoothing – no irritation and microdamage from shaving → the skin becomes more even and aesthetic
- elimination of ingrown hairs – removal of the cause of the problem → no inflammation and discomfort
- reduction of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation – evening out of skin tone → especially in previously irritated areas
- improved quality of life – no need for regular hair removal → time savings and convenience
- long-lasting effect – after completing the series, maintenance treatments are sufficient → stability of results
This is a treatment that changes everyday life – not only visually, but above all functionally.
Frequency of treatments (therapy plan)
To achieve optimal and lasting effects, treatments should be performed according to the hair growth cycle.
- recommended series → 4–8 treatments
- intervals → every 6–8 weeks (depending on the area)
- first results → visible after 1–2 treatments
- maintenance treatments → once a year
Consistency is key – only a full series provides a lasting reduction effect.
