New pedicures on and off the strip ease foot fatigue with everything from diamond dust to snakeskin.
Soothe your tender soles by slipping into the whirlpool at ESPA at Vdara.
Bellagio Spa & Salon
The natural desert environment is the inspiration for the 65-minute Terra Firma Stone Pedicure ($130). Warm stones serve as a destressing massage tool to melt away tension and pain in the legs and feet, then essential oils of pure organic jojoba and buruti are used to stimulate circulation and add deep moisture for silky smooth skin. Bellagio, 702-693-8080
Canyon Ranch SpaClub
Relax from the soles up with the Balancing Foot Veil, as your feet and lower legs are soothed and stimulated by a classic ayurvedic pedicure. The 80-minute treatment includes an aromatic foot soak, a scrub, and extended foot massage, plus an exfoliating hand treatment ($150, Monday– Wednesday; $155, Thursday– Sunday). The Endless Energy Pedicure ($130/$135) likewise lasts a luxurious 80 minutes and includes an exfoliation, a self-heating mud mask, and a cooling gel treatment. Venetian and Palazzo, 702-414-3600

Salon Vdara and ESPA at Vdara
Inspired by runway looks, Salon Vdara’s exotic Snakeskin Pedicure ($200; $215 for faux snakeskin) features naturally shed python skin, which is shaped to fit your toenails, affixed on top of your choice of color with a clear coat of Bio Sculpture gel, and detailed with nail art. Because of the intricacy of the treatment, allow about two and a half hours. Vdara, 702-590-2474
The Spa at Mandarin Oriental
The Diamond Magnetic Manicure & Pedicure ($220) is performed in the Spa at Mandarin’s Chinese Foot Spa, where a luminous mud with diamond dust is combined with a massage. After cleansing and exfoliation, a magnet removes the remaining product and balances the body’s energy. Mandarin Oriental, 702-590-8886
The Salon at Red Rock
If your soles could easily traverse hot coals, it’s time for the Top of the Rock pedicure ($100), an 80-minute treatment that combines a coconut milk bath, intensive buffing with the Clarisonic Pedi Device (launched at the International Spa Association conference at Mandalay Bay in October), a sugar scrub, a massage, and lavender aromatherapy as part of a paraffin treatment.

The Salon at Wynn
Treat your dry feet to the aptly named Ultimate Pedicure ($130), an intense, 60-minute hydrating therapy that starts with a hydrating mineral-based lotion. Nails are reshaped and cuticles perfected, calves and feet are exfoliated with Dead Sea salts and minerals and then lightly massaged, and moisture is sealed in with a hydrating mask and warm paraffin treatment.

Violet Hour Salon
Cherry blossom and lotus provide the rejuvenating benefits of the Violet Hour Signature Pedicure ($125; add $95 for a matching manicure). A lavish foaming wash purifies and tones the skin, while exfoliating microbeads and a hydrating elixir are used to soften the feet and ease tension. The 65-minute treatment concludes with a brightening peel and firming masque. Cosmopolitan, 702-698-7272
