About
Meet Alaina Crook, Your Calgary Laser Aesthetician
I’m Alaina Crook, the owner and sole laser aesthetician at Elysian Laser Aesthetics in Sunpark Plaza, SE Calgary. For over 10 years I’ve worked exclusively in laser and skin treatments, and I personally perform every treatment in my clinic — from your consultation to your final result. No rotating staff, no handoffs, no guessing who you’ll see. Just me, the same experienced hands, every single visit.

Who Performs Your Treatments at Elysian?
I do — every time. At most clinics you’re passed between technicians and rarely see the same person twice. At Elysian, I’m the one who assesses your skin, designs your plan, performs the treatment, and follows your healing. That continuity is the whole point: it’s how I keep your results consistent and your experience safe.
My Background and Training
I completed my medical aesthetics training at The Esthetic Institute, then spent years working in established clinics to sharpen my craft and learn the realities of this industry inside and out. I went on to build and run my own laser clinic for eight years before selling my shares and starting fresh.
This time, I built it smaller and more intentional — a boutique, solo practice where I oversee every client’s entire aesthetic journey myself. It’s the happiest and most rewarding chapter of my career, because it lets me do the part I love most: getting to know my clients and being personally accountable for their results.
What Makes My Clinic Different?
What truly sets me apart is that I’d rather you leave with honest information than with a treatment that won’t make you happy — or one that isn’t safe for your skin. You won’t find high-pressure sales here, and you won’t find package lock-ins. I offer straightforward single sessions, medical-grade equipment, and advice given with integrity.
Because I work solo on quality equipment, I can take the time most clinics can’t: aggressive cooling for comfort, careful safety protocols, and a treatment plan built around your goals and budget rather than a sales target.


about Me
A Little About Me
When I’m not helping clients chase their hair-free or glowing-skin goals or working on Elysian’s admin needs, I’m at home with my beautiful family and my 3 adorable rescue pups. Usually baking gluten-free treats, weight lifting (my new passion), or binge-watching a good show.
Book your free consultation — I am looking forward to meeting you. You can also view my pricing here.
