December in Vancouver brings crisp air, cozy evenings and, for many of us, a noticeable spike in dry, depleted skin. While winter weather on the West Coast is always beautiful, the blasting hot, dry air from the furnace can take a very real toll on your complexion, leaving it feeling noticeably dry and tight, even with a healthy skincare routine.
If you’re exploring ways to support healthier-looking skin this season, one of the focuses at Dr. Kamani’s practice is skincare in Vancouver, as a medical practitioner and Clinical Associate Professor at UBC. Dr. Kamani has spent over three decades focusing on the balance of Health and Beauty around skincare. For patients targeting serious hydration, SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM has become one of the most talked-about treatments in the beauty periodicals and around the Internet.
SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM® is a hyaluronic acid (HA) microdroplet injectable that helps improve skin smoothness in the cheeks. Unlike fillers, SKINVIVE™ is formulated to enhance the hydration and overall appearance of skin rather than add noticeable volume. For those navigating winter dryness, SKINVIVE™ may help the skin reflect light more evenly and feel more refreshed.
Benefits of SKINVIVE™:
- Boosts deep skin hydration
- Smooths and refines skin texture
- Enhances natural glow and light reflection
- Improves overall skin quality without adding volume
Winter skincare in Vancouver often requires a multi-step approach: consistent moisturizing, sun protection (even on cloudy days), gentle exfoliation, and lifestyle habits like adequate water intake and humidifier use. SKINVIVE™ can support your broader routine by supporting skin quality from within. During your consultation, Dr. Kamani will assess your skin, discuss your goals, and ensure you understand the potential benefits, risks, and expectations associated with treatment.
Most clients describe a session of SKINVIVE™ as quick–it’s the first HA microdroplet injectable of its kind approved in Canada and offers a unique option for individuals seeking smoother-looking skin during the driest months of the year. Results vary from person to person, but in clinical studies, patients who were treated with SKINVIVE by JUVÉDERM® reported high satisfaction with how glowing, hydrated, refreshed, and healthy their skin looked through 6 months.
