You’re not looking for another facial that feels nice but doesn’t change anything. You need treatments that target what’s actually bothering you—whether that’s acne scars that won’t fade, fine lines that showed up seemingly overnight, or dull skin that makeup can’t fix anymore.
That’s where medical-grade skincare makes the difference. Treatments like HydraFacial, microneedling, and chemical peels work below the surface to trigger real change in how your skin behaves and looks. You see improvement in texture, tone, and clarity—not just for a day or two, but in ways that build over time.
Every treatment starts with understanding what’s happening with your skin right now. No cookie-cutter approach. No upselling you on things you don’t need. Just a clear plan based on what you’re dealing with and what you’re trying to achieve.
We’ve been serving clients across Wake County for years, including right here in Apex, NC. Founded by Jacqueline Grace—a licensed esthetician who’s been named Best Esthetician in Wake County three years running—we’re not a spa trying to do everything. We’re a clinic focused on one thing: getting your skin where you want it to be.
Jacqueline holds HydraFacial Master Certification, which puts her among the top practitioners worldwide. She’s also earned first place internationally in the Pigmentation Artist of the Year category at The Skin Games. That level of recognition doesn’t come from marketing—it comes from results.
Our Apex clients appreciate the personalized approach here. You’re not handed a menu and left to guess. You get a free consultation, a real evaluation of your skin, and a treatment plan that makes sense for your goals and your schedule.
First, you schedule a free consultation. This isn’t a sales pitch. It’s a one-on-one evaluation where your skin is assessed and your concerns are heard. You’ll talk through what’s bothering you, what you’ve tried before, and what kind of results you’re hoping for.
From there, we build a treatment plan specifically for you. Maybe that’s a single HydraFacial before an event. Maybe it’s a series of microneedling sessions to address scarring or texture. Either way, you know what to expect before anything starts.
During the treatment, we explain everything as it happens. You’re not left wondering what’s being applied or why. Afterward, you’ll get clear instructions on what to do at home to support your results—and what to avoid so you don’t undo the work.
Most treatments take under an hour. There’s little to no downtime for services like HydraFacial or dermaplaning, so you can book around your life instead of rearranging everything. For deeper treatments like chemical peels or microneedling, you’ll know upfront what recovery looks like so there are no surprises.

Every visit starts with a skin evaluation. Even if you’ve been in before, your skin changes—so the approach adjusts with it. You’re not getting the same treatment on repeat just because it’s what you booked last time.
Our HydraFacial treatments go beyond the basics. As a HydraFacial Master Certified provider, we customize every session with boosters and serums that match your skin’s current needs. That might mean targeting hyperpigmentation, calming inflammation, or flooding dehydrated skin with the right kind of hydration.
For clients dealing with acne scarring, uneven texture, or deeper signs of aging, microneedling with SkinPen offers a proven solution. It stimulates collagen production at a level that topical products simply can’t reach. You’ll see improvement over weeks as your skin rebuilds itself from within.
Apex is a growing area with a mix of professionals, families, and active individuals who want to look their best without a complicated routine. That’s why we also offer services like dermaplaning and brow threading—quick, effective treatments that fit into a busy schedule and deliver immediate smoothness and definition.
Your first visit starts with a free consultation and skin evaluation. You’ll sit down with a licensed esthetician who will examine your skin, ask about your concerns, and discuss what you’ve tried in the past. This isn’t a quick glance—it’s a real assessment.
From there, you’ll talk through treatment options that make sense for your goals. If you’re dealing with acne, the approach will be different than if you’re focused on anti-aging or pigmentation. You’ll also discuss timing, especially if you have an event coming up or prefer to plan treatments around your schedule.
If it makes sense to start treatment that same day, you can. If you’d rather think it over or book for another time, that’s fine too. There’s no pressure to commit on the spot.
A regular facial typically focuses on relaxation and surface-level cleansing. A HydraFacial is a medical-grade treatment that uses patented technology to cleanse, extract, and hydrate at a deeper level. It’s not just about feeling pampered—it’s about creating visible change in your skin.
The treatment uses a multi-step process that includes exfoliation, gentle extraction of impurities, and infusion of serums tailored to your skin’s needs. Because it’s customizable, you’re not getting a one-size-fits-all experience. If your skin is congested, the focus is on deep cleaning. If it’s dry or showing signs of aging, hydration and peptides take priority.
You’ll see results immediately—smoother texture, more even tone, and a glow that doesn’t disappear after a few hours. And because there’s no downtime, you can book it during lunch or before an event without worrying about redness or peeling.
It depends on the treatment. For something like a light chemical peel or HydraFacial, there’s little to no downtime. You might have slight redness for an hour or two, but nothing that keeps you from going about your day.
Microneedling involves a bit more recovery. Your skin will be red and slightly sensitive for about 24 to 48 hours—similar to a mild sunburn. Most people are back to normal within two to three days. You’ll want to avoid heavy workouts, direct sun exposure, and harsh skincare products during that time.
Deeper chemical peels can involve peeling and flaking for several days. You’ll get detailed aftercare instructions so you know exactly what to expect and how to care for your skin as it heals. The key is planning ahead if you have an event or photos coming up.
That’s exactly what the free consultation is for. Your skin is evaluated in person, and your concerns are discussed in detail. What bothers you most? What have you tried before? What kind of results are you hoping for, and what’s your timeline?
From there, we recommend a treatment plan based on what will actually address your specific issues. If you’re dealing with active breakouts, the approach will focus on calming inflammation and preventing future acne. If your concern is scarring or texture, treatments like microneedling or chemical peels will be prioritized.
We also walk you through what each treatment involves, how long results take, and what kind of maintenance is needed. There’s no guessing or hoping something works—you’ll know upfront what to expect and why it’s being recommended.
Yes. Sensitive skin just means the treatment approach needs to be adjusted. During your consultation, your skin’s sensitivity level is assessed, and treatments are customized accordingly. That might mean using gentler exfoliation, adjusting the intensity of a peel, or choosing specific serums that won’t trigger irritation.
HydraFacial is often a great option for sensitive skin because it’s non-invasive and can be tailored to focus on calming and hydration rather than aggressive exfoliation. Treatments like dermaplaning are also gentle and can actually help sensitive skin by removing the barrier of dead cells that prevent products from absorbing properly.
The goal is always to improve your skin without causing unnecessary irritation or downtime. If something doesn’t feel right during a treatment, we adjust it immediately. Your comfort and your skin’s health come first.
It depends on what you’re treating and what your goals are. For maintenance and general skin health, many clients come in once a month for a HydraFacial. It keeps skin clear, hydrated, and glowing without requiring a major time commitment.
If you’re working on something specific—like acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, or deeper signs of aging—you might need a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart. Microneedling, for example, typically works best in a series of three to six sessions, with about four to six weeks between each one.
After your initial consultation and first treatment, you’ll get a recommendation for how often to return based on your skin’s response and your goals. There’s no pressure to book more than what makes sense for you.
