Face forward!

Estheticians at Spa Sydell recommend medical-grade skincare from brands like SkinBetter Science, Hydrinity, and SkinMedica. Start with a customized facial tailored to specific skin types considering factors such as sensitivity, hydration levels, acne tendencies, or aging concerns. A qualified esthetician will create a bespoke plan that combines suitable products, techniques, and treatments. 

Then, take it up a notch with PDO Threads, a type of biocompatible thread used in non-surgical cosmetic procedures to lift and rejuvenate the skin. Made from a safe, absorbable polymer, these threads stimulate collagen production as they gradually dissolve, resulting in improved skin texture and firmness. Inserted into the skin by a healthcare professional, PDO threads offer immediate lifting effects and long-term benefits by promoting natural tissue regeneration.  

During the cold season a 60-90 minute hot stone massage is calling your name. The combination of heat and massage techniques helps alleviate muscle eases tension, and improves blood circulation, providing a sense of relaxation making it an effective method for both physical and mental rejuvenation.  10593 Old Alabama Rd, Alpharetta SpaSydell.com

Work it out

Orangetheory classes are group fitness workouts where members can feel the atmosphere, which provides a great sense of community. Often, members find their accountability partners right in the studio, which helps to kickstart their motivation. Additionally, the ability to pre-book classes in an app to reserve your spot holds you accountable. The "Book Together, Sweat Together" feature allows you to share the workout class you just booked with a friend so they can join you in the same class, making it even more enjoyable and motivating to start your fitness journey this month. Orangetheory is also bringing the Transformation Challenge back this year but with a new twist. Using the InBody Scale for a complete look at body composition at the beginning and end of the 8-week challenge, each participant will be given a goal choice to concentrate on fat loss or muscle gain, which will assist members in attaining the goals they set for themselves, says Julie Santana, studio manager. 3450 Old Milton Pkwy #210, Alpharetta Orangetheory.com
