What is Trapezius Botox?
Trapezius Botox, also known as Trap Botox, is an injectable treatment that relaxes the trapezius muscles, often referred to as the ‘traps’. When these muscles become overworked and tense, it can lead to discomfort and postural issues in the neck, shoulders, and upper back.
Consequently, the Trap Botox injection aims to alleviate this muscle tension by temporarily relaxing the trapezius muscles.
What Is Trapezius Muscle?
The trapezius muscle is a large muscle that extends from the back of your head and neck down to your shoulders, playing a super important role in defining your upper body’s structure.
When the trapezius muscle experiences hypertrophy, it grows bigger and more developed, it can be due to tenderness, tightness, and pain. Furthermore, various factors contribute to the development of these trigger points, including:
- Muscle overuse/ or Frequent Muscle Movement
- Injury
- Improper posture,
- Stress
However, Trap Botox injections can address all of these issues.
How Does Botox Work For Trapezius Muscle?
By receiving Botox injections in the trapezius muscles, or “traps”, the nerve signals that cause these muscles to become overworked from constant movement can be blocked. Additionally, this temporary muscle relaxation helps:
- alleviate stiffness and pain
- leading to improved posture.
Hence, the absence of tension in the traps also creates the appearance of a longer neck and smoother shoulders and upper back.
