Laser Derm Clinic and Wellness Centre

She graduated from the U of A with a family practice degree in 1978. Her interests in dermatology have expanded to include evidence-based anti-aging medicine. She is a member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, the Canadian Association of Aesthetic Medicine and the CPSA. In 2005 she opened a medical spa with the intention of providing Family Practice, Medical Dermatology and Cosmetic Aesthetics in one location. This allowed her to continue offering medical care to her long-term patients, many of whom have been with her since 1978. Dr. Bakken is especially interested in the challenging area of Medical Dermatology and Facial Rejuvenation and Reconstruction.

She have worked at Laser Derm and Wellness Centre since 2007 as a Clinical Aesthetician and Laser Technician. I have enjoyed offering many services such as IPL, skin resurfacing, microdermabrasion, chemical peels and assisting Dr. Bakken. I have thoroughly enjoyed working at Laser Derm for the past 9 years and helping achieve skin care goals to many patients. It is an honor to help all patients and it brings me great joy.

She had the honor of graduating from Marvel College, June 2015. During my training I was able to learn how to do services like microdermabrasion, pedicures, eyebrow/eyelash tinting, body treatments, makeup artistry and many more valuable services. I had the pleasure of being sponsored by the Laser Derm & Wellness team for my aesthetics practicum. I was ecstatic that Dr. Bakken hired me and I love working alongside her because I get to learn new things every single day. My favorite product offered here at the Laser Derm & Wellness Centre is the Jane Iredale makeup line. Not only is it an amazing mineral based line but it is also a true extension of skin care.
