Medical Grade Facials

Facials are a great way to reveal fresh skin cells, smooth skin texture, improve the appearance of wrinkles, and hydrate skin. Medical grade facials take this beauty standard one step further. At Pure Essence Center for Wellness and Aesthetics in Wolcott, CT we use these peels, including VI peels and jet peels, to treat specific skin problems.

What Are Medical Grade Facials and Peels?

Medical grade facials and peels, much like traditional spa facials, follow essential steps like cleansing, exfoliating, extracting, and hydrating. However, medical facials are customized with advanced, medical-grade products and tools, allowing them to penetrate deeper into the skin for longer-lasting, more effective results. This approach makes medical facials suitable for all skin types and offers a level of restoration beyond typical spa treatments, leaving the skin soft, rejuvenated, and healthy.

How the Process Works

During a medical facial, our skilled staff will follow the standard steps while tailoring each stage to your skin’s unique needs. Based on your goals, additional techniques such as microneedling or dermaplaning may be included to enhance results. The procedure typically lasts around one hour, though downtime may vary depending on the treatment's specifics and the ingredients used. Following post-care instructions, such as avoiding sun exposure, helps maintain the health and appearance of your skin.

Types of Medical Grade Facials

At Pure Essence Center, we understand that skincare isn’t one-size-fits-all, so we offer various medical facial options to meet specific skincare needs:


  • VI Peel Facials: Designed to promote cellular turnover, the VI peel addresses concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and acne. Patients experience a brighter, more youthful complexion within about a week.

  • Jet Peel Facials: This “power wash” for the skin uses high-pressure serum streams to hydrate deeply without causing irritation. It’s ideal for dry, sensitive, or acne-prone skin.

  • Decongesting Acne Facials: Perfect for clearing pores and blackheads, this facial includes extractions to eliminate clogged sebum, improving skin health and clarity.


Each option is tailored to address specific concerns and provides an effective, personalized approach to skincare.
