Botox treatment for the trapezius muscles is a specialized procedure designed to address both medical and cosmetic concerns. At Dr Aesthetica, we offer expert trapezius Botox treatments to help alleviate muscle tension, reduce pain, and enhance the aesthetic appearance of the shoulders and neck.
What is Trapezius Botox?
Trapezius Botox involves the injection of botulinum toxin into the trapezius muscles. These muscles are located at the back of the neck and extend down to the shoulders. Botox works by temporarily paralyzing the muscle activity, which can relieve muscle tension, reduce pain, and create a more slender neck and shoulder contour.

Are you waking up with jaw tension, headaches, or unexplained facial pain? You could be experiencing bruxism—the unconscious clenching or grinding of teeth, often during sleep. This common but overlooked condition can lead to chronic discomfort, fatigue, and worn teeth. At The Bruxism Clinic, Dr. Farmah offers a gentle, effective solution using targeted Botox injections. Most patients notice less tightness, fewer headaches, and better sleep within weeks.

Wondering how Botox treatment for bruxism is performed? Our specialist carefully sterilizes the skin before precisely targeting the masseter muscle—the main muscle responsible for jaw clenching. Using a tiny, ultra-fine needle, three small injections are given in safe areas to avoid affecting your smile or facial expression. The procedure is quick, comfortable, and designed to give excellent results without unwanted aesthetic changes.
Your comfort and natural appearance are always our priority at every step of the treatment.
Just received Botox treatment for jaw clenching? Here’s what you can expect: Mild jaw fatigue or less bite strength may appear in the first two weeks as the treatment starts to work. Today, take it easy—avoid intense exercise and don’t apply makeup over the treated area. By tomorrow, you can resume your normal routine. In four weeks, you’ll have a review appointment to assess your progress and, if needed, top up your treatment. Most patients enjoy noticeable relief and only require repeat visits every five to six months.

Every journey is unique, but the goal remains the same: restoring comfort, peace of mind, and a better quality of life for every patient.
Trapezius Botox involves injecting botulinum toxin into the trapezius muscles to relieve muscle tension, reduce pain, and enhance the aesthetic appearance of the shoulders and neck.
Botox works by temporarily relaxing the muscle activity in the trapezius muscles. This reduces muscle tension, alleviates pain, and can slim the appearance of the neck and shoulders.
Individuals with chronic neck and shoulder pain, overdeveloped trapezius muscles, tension headaches related to muscle stress, or those seeking a more balanced neck and shoulder contour are good candidates.
The procedure typically takes about 15-30 minutes, depending on the extent of the treatment area.
There is no downtime after Trapezius Botox. You can resume normal activities immediately, although slight swelling or bruising may occur at the injection sites.
Initial effects may be noticed within 3-7 days, with full results developing over 2-3 weeks. A follow up is typically scheduled at 4 weeks
The effects of Trapezius Botox usually last between 3-6 months. Regular treatments may be recommended to maintain the desired outcomes.
Potential side effects include mild bruising or swelling at the injection site, temporary muscle weakness, and rarely, flu-like symptoms or headaches. These side effects are typically mild and resolve on their own. In cases where someone has a forward lean, this can be made worse with botox
