At the Derma Lounge our mission is to make you feel more confident in your own skin, using highly individualized care we treat clients with such treatments peels, micro-needling, neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin), and lasers. Our Aurora skin care clinic has built our reputation on client satisfaction by giving the most effective Acne and Skin treatments and by achieving amazing results. Well-known for our Oxygeneo, this skin treatment gives the client fresh, glowing, younger-looking skin immediately, and makes them red-carpet-ready instantly! Never underestimate the importance of a good consult. The consultation is an opportunity for the clients to express their skin concerns and for our skin specialist Susan, to assess their skin to help identify underlying skin problems like acne. Routine follow-ups are always offered and Susan is always contactable to answer any queries or concerns clients may have.

Our Team of Experts

Susan Khalili – Certified Skin Care Therapist

Since graduating from Elmcrest College of Applied Health Sciences and Spa Management in 1999, I have worked in the clinical skin care industry alongside top cosmetic physicians in Toronto.

My career began as a cosmetic laser technician for LCI Lasercom, the first Canadian company to open a chain of clinics in Ontario and Quebec specializing strictly in Laser Hair Removal.

From 2001 – 2005, my skin care knowledge and passion ignited while working for Dr. L. Herman and renowned cosmetic surgeon Dr. Conrad. I owe my work ethic, high moral principals, and high standards in hygiene and professionalism to these two role models. My passion and skillset for skin landed me a teaching position at the Canadian Beauty College in Newmarket, where I taught Medical Aesthetics for one year.
