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.

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
