Most people don’t have time for a week of recovery or a treatment plan that requires guessing. You’re looking for something that fits into your life—something that shows up when you need it to, whether that’s before a wedding, after years of sun damage, or just because you’re tired of looking in the mirror and feeling frustrated.
That’s where medical-grade skincare makes the difference. HydraFacial treatments clean out pores and boost hydration in under an hour. Microneedling helps fade acne scars and smooth texture over a series of sessions that don’t put your life on hold. Chemical peels address pigmentation and dullness without the drama.
You walk in with a concern. You leave with a plan that’s built around your skin, your timeline, and your goals. No cookie-cutter facials. No pressure to buy products you don’t need.
We’re based in Wake Forest and serve clients throughout Granville and Wake County, including Creedmoor. Jacqueline Grace, our founder and licensed esthetician, has been named Best Esthetician in Wake County three years running—not because of marketing, but because clients see results.
She’s also HydraFacial Master Certified, which puts her in the top tier of practitioners worldwide. That certification isn’t handed out. It’s earned through advanced training, consistent outcomes, and a track record of doing the work right.
Creedmoor residents don’t need to drive to Raleigh or Durham for quality skincare. You’re 15 minutes from a provider who combines medical-grade treatments with a personalized approach that actually makes sense for your skin type, your concerns, and your budget.
First, you get a free consultation. Not a sales pitch—a real conversation about what’s going on with your skin and what you’re hoping to change. Jacqueline evaluates your skin in person, asks about your routine, your history, and your goals, then maps out what will actually work.
If you move forward, your first treatment is customized based on that evaluation. HydraFacial sessions cleanse, extract, and hydrate in about 45 minutes. Microneedling appointments take a bit longer and involve numbing cream to keep you comfortable while the device stimulates collagen production. Chemical peels are tailored to your skin’s tolerance and the level of correction you need.
You’re not locked into a package. You’re not upsold on things you don’t need. You get honest guidance on what’s worth your time and money, whether that’s a single session before an event or a series of treatments to address something deeper. Every step is explained before it happens, and you’re checked in with during and after to make sure you’re healing well and seeing the changes you came in for.

Every service starts with a skin evaluation, even if you’ve been in before. Your skin changes with the seasons, your stress levels, your hormones—so the treatment adjusts with it.
HydraFacial is the most requested service for good reason. It’s a three-step process that deep cleans without irritation, pulls out debris you didn’t even know was there, and floods your skin with serums that target your specific concerns—whether that’s fine lines, congestion, or dullness. You see the difference immediately, and there’s zero downtime.
For clients in Creedmoor dealing with acne scars, melasma, or rough texture, microneedling and chemical peels go deeper. Microneedling uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries that trigger your skin’s healing response. That means new collagen, smoother skin, and fading of old scars over time. Chemical peels use medical-grade acids to remove damaged outer layers and reveal fresher skin underneath. Both treatments are adjusted to your skin type and tolerance.
You also have access to dermaplaning, brow threading, and Botox when those make sense for your goals. Everything is done in a clean, professional space with attention to safety and comfort. And if you’re not sure what you need, that’s fine—that’s what the consultation is for.
A medical spa uses treatments that go beyond surface-level relaxation. You’re getting procedures that are backed by clinical research and often involve medical-grade tools, ingredients, or techniques—things like microneedling devices, prescription-strength peels, and injectables like Botox.
Day spas focus on pampering. Medical spas focus on results. That doesn’t mean the experience is clinical or uncomfortable—it just means the treatments are designed to actually change your skin, not just make you feel good for an afternoon.
At Wake Skincare, you’re working with a licensed esthetician who’s trained in advanced skincare and certified in specialized treatments like HydraFacial. The environment is professional, the products are pharmaceutical-grade, and the approach is personalized based on what your skin actually needs—not what’s trending or on sale.
Your first HydraFacial starts with a consultation to talk through your skin concerns and goals. Jacqueline will look at your skin, ask about your current routine, and explain what the treatment will target based on what she’s seeing.
The HydraFacial itself takes about 45 minutes. You’ll lie back while a handheld device is moved across your face in three stages: cleansing and exfoliation, extraction of blackheads and debris, and infusion of hydrating serums. It’s not painful—most people find it relaxing. There’s a light suction sensation during extractions, but nothing that hurts or leaves you red for hours.
Right after, your skin looks clearer, smoother, and more hydrated. There’s no peeling, no downtime, and no reason you can’t go back to work or an event the same day. You’ll also get aftercare guidance on how to maintain the results and whether follow-up sessions make sense for your goals.
It depends entirely on what you’re treating and what your skin can handle. If you’re coming in for a HydraFacial to maintain clear, glowing skin, once a month is a solid rhythm. If you’re addressing something more stubborn—like acne scars, hyperpigmentation, or deep lines—you might need a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart.
Microneedling typically works best in a series of three to six sessions, scheduled four to six weeks apart, because your skin needs time to produce new collagen between treatments. Chemical peels vary based on strength—lighter peels can be done monthly, while deeper peels might only be needed once or twice a year.
During your consultation, Jacqueline will give you a realistic timeline based on your skin and your goals. There’s no pressure to book more than you need. If a single session gets you where you want to be, that’s the recommendation. If your concern requires consistency, you’ll know that upfront.
For most treatments, no. HydraFacial, dermaplaning, and brow threading have zero downtime—you can go straight back to your day. Your skin might look a little pink for an hour or two after a HydraFacial, but nothing that requires you to hide.
Microneedling causes some redness and sensitivity for about 24 to 48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn. Most people schedule it for a Friday so they have the weekend to heal, but you’re not bedridden or peeling. You just look a little flushed.
Chemical peels depend on the strength. A light peel might leave you with some tightness and flaking over the next few days, which you can usually cover with makeup. A deeper peel will cause more visible peeling for up to a week, so that’s something to plan around if you have events or meetings. Jacqueline walks you through what to expect based on the peel she’s recommending, so there are no surprises.
Yes. HydraFacial is actually one of the gentler options for sensitive and acne-prone skin because it doesn’t rely on harsh scrubs or aggressive extractions. The device uses a vacuum-based system to clean out pores without manual squeezing, and the serums are customized to your skin type.
If you’re dealing with active breakouts, the treatment can help clear congestion and calm inflammation without making things worse. If your skin is sensitive or reactive, Jacqueline adjusts the pressure, skips any steps that might irritate, and chooses serums that focus on soothing and hydration instead of exfoliation.
That said, if you’re on certain acne medications like Accutane, or if you have an active skin infection, some treatments might need to wait. That’s why the consultation matters—it’s a chance to talk through your full history and make sure the treatment plan is safe and effective for where your skin is right now.
Threading is more precise, especially if you want clean lines and detailed shaping. It removes hair at the follicle level using twisted thread, so you get the same smooth results as waxing, but with more control over exactly which hairs are removed.
It’s also gentler on the skin. Waxing pulls on the skin itself, which can cause irritation, redness, or even breakouts if your skin is sensitive or if you’re using retinoids or other active skincare ingredients. Threading only grabs the hair, so there’s less trauma to the surrounding skin.
The process is quick—usually under 10 minutes for brows—and the results last about the same amount of time as waxing, typically three to four weeks. If you’ve never tried it, it feels like a light snapping sensation, not painful but noticeable. Most people find it easier to tolerate than waxing, especially around delicate areas like the brows and upper lip.
