You stop avoiding mirrors. You stop layering on extra foundation before leaving the house. The texture smooths out, the tone evens, and people start asking what you’re doing differently.
That’s what happens when treatments are built around your specific skin concerns instead of a one-size-fits-all menu. HydraFacial, microneedling, chemical peels, dermaplaning—each one gets customized based on what your skin actually needs, not what’s trending or easy to sell.
The difference shows up fast. Most people see visible improvement after their first session. Not subtle “maybe it’s better” results—actual change in how their skin looks and feels. That’s because medical-grade solutions work at a deeper level than what you’ll find at a typical beauty shop near me or day spa.
You’re not guessing anymore. You’re not cycling through products that don’t work. You’re working with someone who’s been trained at the highest level, who’s won international competitions for results, and who’s been named Best Esthetician in Wake County three years running.
We’re one of the few HydraFacial Master Certified providers in North Carolina. That’s not a participation trophy—it’s elite-level training that puts us among the top practitioners worldwide.
Jacqueline Grace, our founder and lead esthetician, has won first place internationally in the Pigmentation Artist category at The Skin Games. She’s been recognized as the Best Esthetician in Wake County for three consecutive years. That level of expertise doesn’t come from following a script—it comes from thousands of hours treating real skin concerns and staying ahead of what actually works.
Briar Chapel residents don’t have to drive into Raleigh or Chapel Hill for this level of care. We serve 22 towns across Wake County, bringing medical-grade skincare closer to home. Every consultation is free, and every treatment plan is built specifically for your skin—not a template pulled from a binder.
You start with a free skin evaluation. No pressure, no upselling—just a detailed look at what’s going on with your skin and what’s realistic to expect from treatment. That conversation covers your concerns, your timeline, and which modalities make the most sense for your goals.
Once you move forward, your first treatment is customized based on that consultation. If you’re dealing with acne scarring, the approach is different than if you’re targeting sun damage or fine lines. HydraFacial might be combined with LED therapy or boosters. Microneedling might be layered with specific serums. Chemical peels get adjusted for your skin type and sensitivity level.
You’ll see improvement right away—smoother texture, better tone, a glow that doesn’t come from highlighter. But the real transformation builds over a series of treatments. Skin doesn’t change overnight, but it does respond when you’re consistent and working with someone who knows how to adjust the plan as your skin improves.
After each session, you get clear guidance on what to expect, how to care for your skin at home, and when to come back. No mystery, no confusion—just a straightforward plan that actually works.

Every facial treatment at Wake Skincare starts with a personalized skin analysis. You’re not getting a generic facial—you’re getting a treatment designed around your specific concerns, whether that’s acne, rosacea, hyperpigmentation, aging, or dehydration.
HydraFacial is one of the most popular options because it delivers immediate results with zero downtime. It cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates in one session, and you walk out looking noticeably better. For deeper concerns like scarring or wrinkles, SkinPen microneedling stimulates collagen production at a level topical products can’t reach.
Chemical peels are customized by strength and formula depending on your skin type and goals. Dermaplaning removes dead skin and peach fuzz for smoother texture and better product absorption. Botox is available for clients looking to soften dynamic wrinkles. Each service can stand alone or be combined into a treatment plan that builds on itself over time.
Briar Chapel is part of the Research Triangle area, where residents tend to be informed, busy, and looking for efficiency. That’s exactly what these treatments offer—real results without the recovery time of more invasive procedures. You’re not taking a week off work. You’re getting visible improvement and going about your day.
Medical-grade facial treatments use clinical-strength products and advanced technology that go deeper than surface-level pampering. A regular facial at a day spa might feel relaxing, but it’s not designed to treat persistent skin concerns like acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, or significant signs of aging.
At Wake Skincare, every treatment is performed by a licensed esthetician with Master-level HydraFacial certification and years of specialized training in medical aesthetics. The products we use are cosmeceutical-grade, meaning they contain active ingredients at concentrations that actually change skin at a cellular level. The equipment—like SkinPen microneedling devices and medical-grade chemical peels—is FDA-cleared and backed by clinical research.
You’re not just getting extractions and a mask. You’re getting a treatment plan that’s built around solving specific problems, with measurable improvement that shows up in before-and-after photos. That’s the difference between a spa day and a skincare solution.
Your first visit starts with a free consultation and skin evaluation. Jacqueline will ask about your skin history, current concerns, products you’ve tried, and what you’re hoping to achieve. She’ll examine your skin under proper lighting to assess texture, tone, hydration levels, and any specific issues like acne, scarring, or sun damage.
From there, she’ll recommend a treatment plan that makes sense for your goals and timeline. If you’re preparing for an event, the approach will focus on immediate visible results. If you’re dealing with long-term concerns, the plan will be structured around a series of treatments that build on each other. You’ll get clear information about what each treatment does, how your skin will respond, and what kind of results are realistic.
If you decide to move forward with a treatment that same day, you can. If you want to think it over, that’s fine too. There’s no pressure—just honest guidance from someone who’s seen thousands of skin types and knows what works.
Most people see visible improvement after their first HydraFacial or dermaplaning session. Your skin looks brighter, smoother, and more hydrated immediately. That’s why these treatments are popular before weddings, photos, or big events—they deliver fast.
For deeper concerns like acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, or wrinkles, you’ll need a series of treatments. Microneedling typically requires 3-6 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart to see significant collagen remodeling. Chemical peels work progressively, with each treatment improving tone and texture more than the last. The timeline depends on what you’re treating and how your skin responds.
The key is consistency. Skin doesn’t transform overnight, but it does respond when you’re working with medical-grade treatments and following a plan designed for your specific concerns. You’ll see incremental improvement along the way, and by the end of your treatment series, the difference is significant enough that other people notice.
HydraFacial has zero downtime. You can get one during your lunch break and go straight back to work. Your skin might be slightly pink for an hour or two, but that fades fast. Most people schedule HydraFacials right before events because the results are immediate and there’s no recovery period.
Dermaplaning also has no downtime—your skin will be smooth and glowing right away. Chemical peels depend on the strength. A light peel might cause minor flaking for a few days, while a deeper peel could involve more visible peeling for up to a week. Microneedling typically causes redness for 24-48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn, and your skin might feel tight or dry for a few days as it heals.
Jacqueline will walk you through exactly what to expect based on the treatment you’re getting. If you have an event coming up, she’ll time your appointments so you look your best when it matters. If you’re doing a deeper treatment, she’ll make sure you know how to care for your skin during the healing process so you get the best possible results.
We treat acne, acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, melasma, sun damage, fine lines, wrinkles, rosacea, uneven texture, large pores, dehydration, and dullness. If you’ve been dealing with any of these issues and over-the-counter products aren’t cutting it, medical-grade treatments can make a real difference.
HydraFacial works well for congested skin, dullness, and dehydration. Microneedling is one of the most effective treatments for acne scars and wrinkles because it stimulates your skin to produce new collagen. Chemical peels target pigmentation, sun damage, and texture issues. Dermaplaning smooths rough skin and removes peach fuzz so your skincare products absorb better.
Each treatment gets customized based on your skin type and concerns. If you have sensitive skin or rosacea, the approach is gentler. If you have oily, resilient skin, treatments can be more aggressive. The goal is always the same—get your skin to a place where you’re not constantly thinking about what’s wrong with it.
We’re HydraFacial Master Certified, which puts us among the top practitioners worldwide. Jacqueline Grace has won international competitions for her work in pigmentation correction and has been named Best Esthetician in Wake County three years in a row. That level of expertise is rare, especially outside of a major metro area.
You’re also getting personalized care that’s built around your specific skin, not a menu of services that everyone gets. Every consultation is free, and every treatment plan is customized. There’s no upselling, no pressure, and no one-size-fits-all approach. You’re working with someone who’s seen thousands of skin types and knows how to adjust treatments based on how your skin responds.
Briar Chapel residents don’t need to drive into Raleigh or Durham for this level of care. We serve 22 towns across Wake County, and the results speak for themselves. If you’ve been frustrated with your skin and nothing else has worked, this is where you stop guessing and start seeing real improvement.
