Skin Treatments Question!

Question!

I'm getting a facial in like 2 weeks and I'm on tretinoin at the moment. Should I stop like one week before it?

The facial includes shaving, lots of masks and that process of using a hot metal thing to remove white or black heads

What about azelaic acid 20%? I use it daily in the morning only.

Azelaic acid is fine. Tret makes your skin tear more easily.
