You’re not looking for a spa day. You’re looking for skin that actually looks better when you have somewhere to be.
That’s where most facial spas miss the mark. They either give you treatments that require days of recovery, or they’re so gentle they don’t do anything at all. You end up choosing between results and your schedule, which isn’t really a choice.
HydraFacial treatments change that equation. The technology cleanses, exfoliates, and infuses your skin with targeted serums in one session—no redness, no peeling, no downtime. You can book it during lunch and go straight back to work. Or get it done Friday afternoon and look fresh for Saturday night. Your skin gets cleaner, plumper, and more radiant while you’re still in the chair.
Most clients see visible improvement after a single treatment. That’s not marketing speak—that’s what happens when you combine medical-grade technology with someone who actually knows how to use it.
Wake Skincare is run by Jacqueline Grace, a licensed esthetician who’s been named Best Esthetician in Wake County three years in a row. She’s also HydraFacial Master Certified, which puts her in the top tier of practitioners worldwide, and took first place in Pigmentation Artist of the Year at The Skin Games international competition.
Those aren’t just plaques on a wall. They’re proof that when you book a facial spa appointment with us, you’re working with someone who’s been tested, trained, and recognized at the highest levels.
Franklinton and the surrounding Wake County area don’t have a lot of options when it comes to medical-grade skincare that’s also personalized. Most places either push the same treatment on everyone or don’t have the credentials to back up what they’re selling. We make sure every consultation is one-on-one, every treatment is customized, and every result is backed by real expertise.
First, you book a free consultation. Not a sales pitch—an actual skin evaluation where we look at what’s going on with your skin, what you’re dealing with, and what you’re trying to fix. If you’re coming in before a wedding, we talk timeline. If you’re dealing with acne scarring or sun damage, we talk treatment plans.
Then we map out a plan that fits your goals and your schedule. If you need immediate results for an event, we focus on treatments like HydraFacial or dermaplaning that deliver fast. If you’re after long-term improvement, we build a series that addresses the root issue—whether that’s pigmentation, texture, or aging.
During the treatment, you’re not left guessing what’s happening. We walk through each step, explain what the technology is doing, and adjust based on how your skin responds. The HydraFacial uses a patented vortex system that pulls out congestion while flooding your skin with hydration and antioxidants. It’s not harsh, but it’s not superficial either.
After your appointment, you leave with clear skin and a plan for maintaining it. No peeling. No hiding. Just better skin that you can see right away.

Every facial spa treatment we offer starts with a customized approach. That means we’re not running the same protocol on every client who walks through the door. Your skin is evaluated first, then treated based on what it actually needs.
HydraFacial is the most requested treatment, and for good reason. It works on all skin types, requires zero downtime, and delivers visible results in about 30 minutes. You get deep cleansing, exfoliation, and serum infusion in one session. It’s effective enough for people dealing with clogged pores, dullness, or fine lines—but gentle enough that you won’t leave red or irritated.
For clients in Franklinton and nearby areas like Wake Forest, Youngsville, and Louisburg, we also offer dermaplaning, chemical peels, microneedling, and targeted treatments for pigmentation or acne. If you’re dealing with something specific—melasma, sun damage, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation—we have the training and the tools to address it properly.
We also combine holistic methods with medical-grade solutions. That means you’re not choosing between natural and effective. You’re getting both, in a way that’s backed by certifications, competition wins, and years of hands-on experience with real clients.
Most HydraFacial treatments take between 30 and 45 minutes, depending on what we’re targeting. There’s no downtime afterward. You can book it during your lunch break and go straight back to work, or get it done before an event that same day.
That’s one of the biggest differences between a HydraFacial and older facial treatments. Traditional facials often involve extractions that leave you red for hours, or peels that require days of recovery. HydraFacial uses a gentler, more controlled process that cleanses and hydrates without irritation.
If you’re getting a chemical peel or microneedling, there may be some light peeling or redness for a day or two. We’ll walk you through exactly what to expect during your consultation so you can plan accordingly. But for most clients looking for a quick refresh with immediate results, HydraFacial is the go-to.
A regular facial usually involves manual cleansing, steaming, extractions, and a mask. The results depend heavily on the esthetician’s technique, and the process can be inconsistent or irritating depending on your skin type.
HydraFacial uses patented vortex technology to cleanse, exfoliate, and infuse serums into your skin in one controlled process. It’s more precise, less invasive, and delivers measurable results every time. The machine does the heavy lifting, but the customization comes from the serums we choose and how we adjust the treatment based on your skin’s needs.
You’re also getting medical-grade ingredients delivered deeper into the skin than a traditional facial can reach. That’s why people see improvement in tone, texture, and hydration after just one session. It’s not magic—it’s better technology combined with better training.
If you’re maintaining healthy skin, once a month is ideal. That aligns with your skin’s natural renewal cycle and keeps buildup, dullness, and clogged pores from becoming bigger problems.
If you’re treating a specific issue like acne, hyperpigmentation, or sun damage, we might recommend a series of treatments spaced two to three weeks apart. Once we see improvement, we’ll space them out to monthly maintenance.
For clients who just want a refresh before a big event—wedding, photoshoot, reunion—one treatment a few days beforehand is usually enough to see a noticeable difference. We’ll give you a clear recommendation during your consultation based on your skin and your goals, not based on what fills the schedule.
Yes. HydraFacial is one of the few treatments that works well on sensitive skin because it doesn’t rely on harsh scrubbing or aggressive extractions. The process is gentle and controlled, and we can adjust the serums and intensity based on how your skin reacts.
If you’ve had bad experiences with facials in the past—redness, breakouts, irritation—it’s usually because the treatment was too aggressive or not customized for your skin type. That’s not an issue with us. We evaluate your skin first and adjust everything accordingly.
Sensitive skin doesn’t mean you can’t get effective treatments. It just means you need someone who knows how to work with it properly. That’s where certifications and experience actually matter.
Our focus is on medical-grade facial treatments, not threading or general beauty services. We specialize in HydraFacial, microneedling, chemical peels, dermaplaning, and targeted skincare treatments that require advanced training and certification.
If you’re looking for brow threading or a beauty shop that offers hair services, nails, and waxing, we’re not the right fit. But if you’re dealing with skin concerns that need real solutions—acne, scarring, pigmentation, aging, texture issues—this is exactly where you should be.
We serve clients throughout Franklinton, Wake Forest, Youngsville, Rolesville, Louisburg, and the greater Wake County area who are tired of surface-level treatments and want results that actually last. That’s what we’re built for.
Your first visit starts with a free consultation and skin evaluation. We’ll look at your skin, ask about your concerns and goals, and talk through what’s realistic based on your timeline and budget. No pressure, no upselling—just a clear conversation about what will actually work.
If you decide to move forward, we’ll customize a treatment plan and can often get you started the same day. During the treatment, we explain what’s happening at each step so you’re not left wondering. You’ll know what the technology is doing, why we’re using specific serums, and what results to expect.
After your appointment, you leave with visibly clearer, more hydrated skin and a better understanding of what your skin actually needs. Most clients walk out with a plan for maintaining their results at home and know exactly when to come back for their next session. That’s the goal every time.
