Dysport/Botox/Xeomin/Jeuveau
The effects of botulinum toxin injections typically last for 3-4 months, after which you may choose to undergo another treatment. In tiny doses, this toxin relaxes the clenched facial muscles that cause crow's feet, frown lines, and the like. The shots take only a few minutes and cause little to no pain. Over time, with repeated treatments, the muscles may weaken, leading to a longer duration between treatments.
The injections can take up to 14 days to go into effect, however there is no significant downtime associated with the procedure. You may re-apply makeup immediately after. We recommend not taking any form of blood thinner prior to the treatment, not laying down or any strenuous exercise for 4-6 hours after the treatment.
It is important to consult with a qualified medical professional at St. Croix Skincare in Hudson, WI, before undergoing cosmetic injections to ensure that you are a suitable candidate for the procedure and to discuss any potential risks or side effects.
Overall, cosmetic injections can help you achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance without the need for surgery. It is a quick and effective solution for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving you feeling more confident in your own skin.

Restylane Family/Juvederm Family
Two popular families of dermal fillers are the Restylane Family and Juvederm Family. Both of these families consist of different types of fillers that are specifically designed to address various signs of aging.
The Restylane Family includes products such as Restylane, Restylane-L, Restylane Lyft, Restylane Refyne, and Restylane Defyne. These fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin that helps to add volume and moisture. The Restylane fillers are used to treat moderate to severe wrinkles, enhance lips, and improve facial contours.
The Juvederm Family includes products such as Juvederm XC, Juvederm Voluma, Juvederm Volbella, and Juvederm Vollure. Like Restylane, Juvederm fillers are also made of hyaluronic acid. Juvederm fillers are used to add volume to the cheeks, smooth lines and wrinkles, enhance lips, and improve facial contours.
Different types of dermal fillers are designed to treat varying signs of aging.
Depending on the filler selected, they may:
-
Plump up thinning lips
-
Enhance or fill in shallow areas on the face
-
Decrease or remove the shadow or wrinkle under
the eyes caused by the lower eyelid -
Fill in or soften the look of recessed scars
-
Fill in or soften static wrinkles, especially on the
lower face
Both the Restylane and Juvederm families of dermal fillers are FDA-approved and safe for use in the face. It is important to consult with one of our experienced professionals at St Croix Skincare in Hudson, WI to determine which filler is best suited for your individual needs and desired results.
Sculptra
Sculptra is typically injected in a series of treatments spread out over a few months. Results are not immediate, as it takes time for the collagen stimulation to occur, but many patients see improvement within a few months of their final treatment. The results can last up to two years, making Sculptra a popular choice for those looking for long-lasting facial rejuvenation.
Sculptra helps restore the deep, underlying structure of the skin to diminish facial wrinkles. As the Sculptra PLLA microparticles are absorbed, they help stimulate collagen production. Rebuilt collagen strands begin gradually helping to restore facial volume and the look of fullness to wrinkles and folds. Sculptra may stimulate collagen growth which helps to restore facial volume and the look of fullness to wrinkles and folds over time.
It is important to note that while Sculptra can help improve the appearance of wrinkles and restore facial volume, it is not a permanent solution. Maintenance treatments may be needed to maintain results over time.
As with any cosmetic procedure, it is important to consult with with one of our experienced professionals at St Croix Skincare in Hudson, WI to determine if Sculptra is right for you and to discuss your treatment goals and expectations.
Vitamin B-12 Shots
Vitamin B12 shots, also known as B12 injections, are a common method of administering the essential vitamin to the body. These shots are typically prescribed for individuals who have a deficiency in vitamin B12 or have difficulty absorbing it through dietary sources.
Vitamin B12 is important for maintaining healthy nerve cells, producing DNA, and forming red blood cells. A deficiency in B12 can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and neurological problems.
B12 shots can increase energy, metabolism, brain function - making it the perfect monthly boost!
Overall, vitamin B12 shots can be an effective way to boost your levels of this essential nutrient and improve your overall health and well-being. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen.

"I’ve been seeing Corrine for Botox for over a year after working with less than ideal injectors in the past. She’s great at walking through options (what effect various units will have) as well as allowing quick check ins if I feel movement is coming back too fast."
