What’s New (Old)

Science + Expertise + Impeccable Service = Outstanding Results

1. Silhouette InstaLift

Silhouette InstaLift is a new and revolutionary non-surgical facelift technique that utilizes self anchoring threads to lift and tighten overlying skin.  It is an excellent solution for early signs of facial deflation and descent that come with aging.  This procedure essentially bridges the gap between surgical lifts and other non-surgical rejuvenation treatments.  It fills the veritable void that has existed in our ability to lift and redistribute lax and descended tissue without the need for surgery and its inherent risks and downtime. No anesthesia, scalpels or incisions required!

 

This is a highly customizable and safe, in office procedure that usually takes less than one hour.  The results are natural, progressive and elegant!


InstaLift sutures are highly bio-stimulatory and absorbable. These threads use micro-suspension technology to predictably and securely provide an immediate lifting effect. But the benefits don’t just stop there!  These biocompatible threads, made of simple sugars, dissolve over time and as they do, they stimulate your own collagen production to provide progressive and natural volume enhancement and improved skin quality for many months to come.  We call this the dual action benefit of InstaLift!

2. HA Skin Boosters:

This is an advanced, micro-injection technique that improves the quality and appearance of aging and damaged skin.  This bio-regenerative treatment stimulates the body to remodel and repair the skin to improve its hydration, radiance and elasticity while infusing the skin with potent protective anti-oxidants.  Dr vanVliet utilizes Swiss made Teosyal based HA micro-fillers infused with hydrating Hyaluronic acid and potent regenerative anti-oxidants for Skin Boosting.  This is referred to as Redensification of the skin.

The most common sites for HA Skin Boosting are: 

  • The Face: including the eyelids and lips 
  • Neckline
  • Chest
  • Hands

HA Skin Boosting treatments can also be combined with correction of dynamic wrinkles and lines and this is referred to as Dynamic Redensification. 

The most common treatment areas for fine lines and wrinkles are:

  • Face: around the eyes, lips, cheeks and neckline
  • Chest wall wrinkles and lines to reduce the stigmata of aging.

Client Testimonials

Dr vanVliet and her team in Spring Spring are highly professional and very respectful of privacy and the personality of each client. The office is exceptionally clean and welcoming. Dr vanVliet has an artist’s eye and a surgeon’s hand. I have thorough confidence in her aesthetic advice and skills. I would recommend this office for anyone seeking basic skin maintenance to age defying therapies, from removal of simple skin lesions to more complicated, larger excisions. The end result is an advertisement in itself.

I love everything about Spring Skin - the people, the treatments, the experience. If you need anything skin-related done, go here. Dr vanVliet is an incredibly skilled practitioner and the staff are amazing - friendly, knowledgeable and they create the most relaxing atmosphere. Whether you’re looking for cosmetic treatments, skin care advice, or more serious interventions, this is the place to do it. Quite simply the best.
- Allegra
While I did not tend to my skin in my youth, over the past 15 years I have protected my face from the sun and taken good care of that organ. In spite of my best efforts, Mother Time has continued to take her toll and I found myself hating my ‘old lady skin’. While I am a happy and healthy senior, I wasn’t ready to fully surrender to all aspects of aging. Two years ago I decided that Mother Time was not going to completely have her way. This is when the Spring Skin clinic began contributing to my non-surgical skin care needs. Using treatments recommended by Dr vanVliet and her team, I have watched my skin condition improve dramatically. From the removal of aging spots to reduced pore size I’d not seen in years; the change over time made me well, beyond happy. I am shocked at how youthful and healthy my skin looks in the full light of day. The smile on my face should be testimonial enough!
- Lorene
5 stars does not even begin to describe my experience at Spring Skin. From the moment I entered the tastefully decorated clinic to the welcome by the warm, friendly and professional team, I felt at ease. Dr vanVliet is very knowledgeable, professional and clearly communicated a plan tailored for me. My skin looks at feels fantastic. I love how I look- refreshed and natural, not overdone. I would highly recommend Spring Skin Clinic, Dr vanVliet and her incredible team and I look forward to booking some further services in the future.
- Kathy
Dr vanVliet and her team are professional, positive and very personable, I felt very safe in their caring hands. I sought out Dr vanVliet’s advice and treatment for my very fair, northern skin and I am very pleased with her expert advice, experience and how she and her team made me feel so comfortable and took care of my concerns. I highly recommend Dr vanVliet and her Spring Skin Clinic here on beautiful Salt Spring Island and I am thrilled that she brought her years of expertise to our island.
- Sibeal Foyle
I was ecstatic to see this clinic open up on Salt Spring, and havent been disappointed. Dr vanVliet and her staff are an absolute delight, and they make every treatment comfortable and fun. Im beyond satisfied with my treatment plan so far, looking forward to taking advantage of new services as they introduce them to the the clinic, and will be a client for life.
