Removal from the planet severed Spock's link to the planet and he would age at a normal rate. Since Saavik had not been resurrected by the application of the Genesis effect, there is no obvious reason (according to the logic of your average fantasy universe) for her to experience the Genesis effect in this way. -- Yehoyaqim Shemtob Martillo Physicists talk to God.
