What makes Dermis different? Our team stays. In an industry where staff turnover is high, our core practitioners have been here for years — building real relationships with clients and tracking your skin’s progress across over 200,000 treatments.
That stability means better results for you. Your practitioner remembers your history, understands your goals, and refines your plan over time. And with training every 90 days — four times the industry standard — our skills stay as sharp as our technology.
Every member of our team brings a unique blend of expertise and warmth. Here are the people who will be caring for your skin.
Owner
Under Stephanie’s leadership, Dermis Advanced Skin Care has grown into one of Ottawa’s most respected clinics — built on a vision of medical-grade aesthetic treatments delivered with integrity, inclusivity, and real results. Her direction has shaped Dermis from a small clinic into one of Ottawa's longest-standing dedicated medical aesthetic practices.
Clinical Director
Mariam is the clinic's master clinician — the most experienced practitioner across all medical aesthetic modalities at Dermis. She manages the most complex cases, develops treatment protocols, defines exact device settings, audits outcomes for consistency, and mentors the entire clinical team.
Medical Aesthetician
With 28+ years of experience, Saadat is our authority on complex laser physics and one of Ottawa's most trusted specialists for treating darker skin tones safely. She is the go-to practitioner for Melasma management using Spectra Toning and Carbon Laser Peels — treatments where precision is non-negotiable.
Nurse Practitioner (MScN, DTM&H)
Elizabeth provides the medical oversight required for all injectable treatments at Dermis. With 18+ years as a Nurse Practitioner and 14+ years specializing in cosmetic injectables, she holds advanced credentials that most clinics cannot match — as an NP, she provides on-site prescribing authority rather than relying on off-site medical sign-off.
Medical Aesthetician
With 18+ years of experience, Khuloud is our laser hair removal specialist — known for her precision, thoroughness, and ability to make every client feel comfortable throughout the treatment process. She is expertly trained on the Cutera Excel HR platform, delivering safe, effective results across all skin types.
Medical Aesthetician
Jenny brings 17+ years of experience and a holistic approach to skin health. She excels at educating clients about their skin, building customized anti-aging protocols, and helping clients understand the 'why' behind every recommendation. Her warmth and thoroughness make her a favourite among long-term clients.
Director of Operations
Eby ensures every aspect of the Dermis experience runs seamlessly — from scheduling and operations to the client journey. Behind the scenes, she manages the systems that allow our clinical team to focus entirely on delivering exceptional care.
Receptionist
Tanya is the welcoming voice and face of Dermis. She coordinates patient intake, manages bookings, and ensures every client's visit begins and ends on a positive note. Her attention to detail and friendly demeanor set the tone for the entire Dermis experience.
Receptionist
Alison is part of the front desk team, helping with bookings, answering treatment questions, and ensuring every client feels welcome and informed from the moment they walk in.
Every interaction with our team follows a consistent, client-centred approach — from your first call to your follow-up appointment.
Your journey begins with a one-on-one skin assessment. Your practitioner listens to your concerns, reviews your health history, examines your skin, and discusses realistic outcomes.
Your practitioner creates a tailored plan addressing your specific concerns — whether that's melasma, acne scarring, fine lines, unwanted hair, or volume loss — using the right combination of our 10 Health Canada–approved devices.
Every session is performed by an experienced, licensed professional using specific wavelengths for specific skin types. For laser clients, we always perform a patch test first to gauge your skin's response.
Your practitioner follows up on your progress, adjusts your plan as your skin evolves, and is always available to answer questions between appointments. Many of our clients have been with us for 5–10+ years.
From common skin concerns to complex conditions, our team has the training and technology to help. Here’s a look at what we treat.

excellent clinic, very attentive and professional- really enjoying my treatments here!
Posting on behalf of my mom, Patricia. She had an exceptional experience at Dermis Advanced Skin Care. The ambiance was incredibly relaxing, and the attention to detail was impeccable. A special thank you to Khuloud for the outstanding service.
Went in for a consultation. They took a look at my skin and asked what products I used. I thought it was glad that they gave me advice about the products I was using. I was informed about the treatments that I would work for my skin issues.
Experience the Dermis difference.
