Hydrafacial™ Prep: 4 Tips for Better Results

Hydrafacial™ is one of the fastest, most effective ways to restore your skin’s glow — but a little preparation can take your results even further.

At Spa Sydell Integrative Aesthetics in Atlanta, we believe that personalized care is the key to achieving radiant, healthy-looking skin. With over 40 years of experience, our team has elevated the standard med spa by combining advanced aesthetic technology with integrative wellness. Every Hydrafacial we perform is customized to your skin’s needs, delivering noticeable improvements without irritation or downtime.

Whether you’re getting ready for a special occasion or just want your skin to feel refreshed, these tips can help you get the most out of your Hydrafacial.

1. Avoid Harsh Products

In the days leading up to your appointment, it’s important to pause your use of products containing retinol, salicylic acid, glycolic acid, and other strong exfoliants. These ingredients can increase skin sensitivity, and layering them with a Hydrafacial may lead to redness or irritation. We recommend stopping use at least 48 hours before your treatment.

2. Hydrate Inside and Out

Hydration is essential to good skin health — and to maximizing the benefits of your Hydrafacial. Be sure to drink plenty of water before and after your session, and maintain a consistent moisturizing routine. Well-hydrated skin is more resilient and will absorb serums more effectively, leaving you with a dewy, refreshed finish.

3. Skip Waxing and Laser Therapies

If you’ve recently had facial waxing, laser hair removal, or other resurfacing treatments, wait at least a week before your Hydrafacial. These services can compromise the skin barrier, and combining them too closely may increase sensitivity or lead to discomfort. Give your skin time to calm down to ensure the best possible outcome.

4. Share Your Skin Concerns

At Spa Sydell, every Hydrafacial begins with a thorough consultation. This allows our experienced team to tailor your treatment to address specific issues — whether that’s dryness, acne, dullness, or uneven skin tone. Personalized care is the heart of what we do, and your goals guide our approach from start to finish.
