What is Traptox?
Traptox is a relatively new treatment where Botox is injected into the trapezius muscle, located in the neck and shoulders. The treatment is often used to reduce tension and pain in these areas. Many people suffer from chronic neck and shoulder pain due to stress, poor posture, or overuse. In addition to pain relief, Traptox can also have aesthetic benefits, such as reducing a 'bumpy' neck and improving the contour of the shoulders. The treatment is simple and requires only a few injections. The effects of Traptox usually last for several months, after which the treatment can be repeated if necessary.
Why Traptox?
Benefits of Traptox
- Effective pain relief: Traptox helps reduce chronic neck and shoulder pain by relaxing the trapezius muscle, significantly alleviating pain and tension.
- Improved posture: By reducing muscle activity in the neck and shoulders, Traptox can help improve posture, leading to less strain on other parts of the body.
- Aesthetic benefits: In addition to relieving pain, Traptox can create a slimmer neck and a refined shoulder line, contributing to a more elegant silhouette.

During the treatment
How does the Traptox treatment work?
The treatment always starts with a short conversation with your practitioner. Here, you discuss your concerns and desires. If necessary, a numbing cream is applied so you barely feel the injections. The treatment area is marked, and several Botox injections are administered. The substance relaxes the muscles, reducing discomfort. You’ll feel less tension in the neck and shoulders, and even pain may disappear. The treatment takes about 15 minutes.
Result
Before and after results of Traptox
In a Traptox treatment, the results are noticeable quickly. Before the treatment, many people experience painful tension in the neck and shoulders, sometimes radiating to the head or arms. This can be accompanied by stiffness, limited mobility, and even headaches. After the Botox treatment, you’ll feel the tension in the trapezius muscle decrease, allowing your neck and shoulders to relax more. The pain reduces, and mobility improves. Additionally, the neck may appear slimmer, and the shoulder line may look more elegant, boosting confidence.
