Relax Your Shoulders. Slim Your Neckline. Feel Lighter.
Trapezius Botox (Trap Tox)
Trapezius Botox — often called 'Trap Tox' — uses small amounts of Botox to relax the trapezius muscles in your upper back and shoulders. This can soften a bulky look, improve posture comfort, and create a longer, more elegant neck line.

What Can Trapezius Botox Treat?
Less tension. More flow. A look that feels effortless.
- Bulky or overactive shoulder muscles
- Neck and shoulder tension
- Stiff posture or tightness
- Short or heavy-looking neckline
- Headaches linked to muscle tension
"When tension drops, your confidence rises."

How It Works
The Process
Small, precise injections are placed into the trapezius muscle. Botox gently relaxes the muscle over time. As the muscle softens, the shoulders look slimmer and the neck appears longer and more defined.
"Calm the muscle — shape the outcome."
The Process
What to Expect
Your visit starts with a consultation and custom plan. The treatment takes about 15–20 minutes. You may feel a quick pinch with each injection. Most patients return to daily activities right away.
