Trapezius Muscle Botox refers to the injection of botulinum toxin (Botox) into the trapezius muscle, which is located in the upper back and neck. This treatment is often used to alleviate muscle spasms, tension, or chronic pain in the trapezius area, providing relief and improving overall comfort and mobility. Also known as “Trap Tox”, this treatment can redefine your silhouette, improve your performance, and provide pain relief.
The following individuals are good candidates for a Trapezius Muscle Botox:
Trapezius Muscle Botox works by injecting botulinum toxin into specific points of the trapezius muscle. The toxin lessens tension and muscle spasms by momentarily blocking nerve signals. This method reduces spasms, persistent pain, and related disorders such as myofascial pain syndrome. The trapezius muscle is specifically relaxed to enhance comfort and range of motion in the upper back and neck. For those with chronic trapezius-related problems, repeated injections can offer long-lasting relief, even though the effects wear off after a few months.
In the Trapezius Muscle Botox procedure, botulinum toxin is injected into specific points of the trapezius muscle to temporarily block nerve signals, reducing muscle tension, and providing relief from spasms and pain.
What you do after your treatment can have a big impact on how well your injections turn out. We recommend the following post-treatment actions:
Each patient experiences pain differently, but generally Botox Trapezius treatment is well tolerated among patients. There may be some discomfort, redness and swelling during and after the injections, but this is usually minimal and short-lived.
The frequency varies from person to person. For maintenance, it is important to have the Traop Tox treatment done every three months in the beginning (the first 2-3 times). Thereafter, with proper maintenance, the duration of results can be extended to six months.
It is advised to avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements a week prior to your treatment. This will help minimize the risk of bruising. We also recommend to stay well hydrated and take advantage of our complimentary consultation for any specific further instructions.
The full effects of Botox injections are usually visible after a few days to a week. However, the aesthetic result (shoulder slimming) is best seen after the second and third treatments. The pain-relieving effect is usually felt after only a few days. The duration of results can vary from person to person, but usually lasts up to six months.
Possible side effects after your treatment include bruising, swelling, redness and sensitivity at the injection sites; however these symptoms are generally mild and subside after a few days.
