A licensed and experienced physician in the field of conventional medicine, Dr. Maria Elizabeth (Lizette) Lourens spent many years working in emergency medicine and general practice before developing a keen interest in functional medicine.

Seeking to assist her patients by treating the cause and not just the symptom of illness, she has dedicated more than 10 years of additional study and practice to develop her expertise in lifestyle and longevity medicine, including bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), brain health and cosmetic enhancement treatments. She embraces the merging of traditional and integrative medical approaches to achieve the best possible results for her clients, helping them look better and feel better on their path to healthy, happy aging.

“To understand a client’s hormonal symphony, it’s imperative to address nutrition, the thyroid, adrenals and a measure a wide range of other hormones to set the proper course for healthy, happy aging,” says Dr. Lizette Lourens.

With more than a decade of experience in medical aesthetics and cosmetic medicine, Dr. Lourens has witnessed the evolution of the industry. With the incredible advancements that have been achieved in medical esthetics, she is a strong believer in utilizing natural facial rejuvenation products like Sculptra and Selphyl, in addition, or as an alternative, to the more traditional injectable treatments like Botox, Juvéderm and other common options.

To keep up with the rapidly advancing field of cosmetic medicine, Dr. Lizette regularly attends conferences and training and was the first physician in Calgary to incorporate Selphyl Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) facial rejuvenation treatments into her practice.

She has earned a solid reputation for her extensive knowledge and experience in anti-aging therapies, including bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), making her a popular health and wellness speaker, presenting at various conferences and workshops throughout North America.
