Botox for Trapezius Seattle, Many people suffer from tension throughout their neck and shoulders, creating headaches, neck aches, or intense shoulder pain. Some have over-developed shoulder and neck muscles, creating an undesirable, bulky appearance. Botox has many uses, and one of the newest benefits of Botox injections is TrapTox. Botox injections in the trapezius muscle can relieve neck and shoulder tension and give patients a slimmer, elegant neck. Seattle TrapTox can be highly beneficial for patients who wish to alleviate neck tension and gain a beautiful, slender neck. But what is TrapTox, and how does it work?

What Is Trapezius Botox?

The trapezius muscles are located in the body's neck, shoulders, and upper back region. Most people experience tension in this region at some point in their life. The trapezius muscles are engaged daily as people work, exercise, and run through daily chores. Poor posture, strain, or injury can all cause tension and pain in the trapezius. This can lead to issues like shoulder and neck stiffness, headaches, or upper back pain. Additionally, tense trapezius muscles can create larger, bulky-looking neck and shoulder muscles.

By injecting Botox into these areas, the botulinum toxin relaxes the trapezius muscles and alleviates tension while providing a leaner, contoured neck. Dr. Sajan will mark the problem areas around the trapezius muscles and inject them quickly with Botox. The treatment is fast, simple, and highly effective.

What Causes Tight Trapezius Muscles?

Seattle Trapezius Botox patients have unique circumstances that create shoulder, neck, and upper back pain. Things as simple as sitting bent over for long periods of time or poor posture can create muscle tightness in the trapezius muscles. Heavy lifting, sleeping poorly, and strenuous exercise can also create knots and inflammation in the trapezius region. TrapTox alleviates inflammation, knots, tightness, and overly-worked trapezius muscles. There is no one reason but rather a combination of them that creates the need for Seattle Botox for Trapezius.

Benefits Of Seattle TrapTox

Thanks to influencers and celebrities highlighting the benefits of TrapTox, many Seattle botox patients have begun to wonder if TrapTox could work for them. There are many benefits from Seattle TrapTox, including:

  • Decreased head and neck tension
  • Eliminates stiffness in the shoulders and neck
  • Reduces tension headaches
  • Helps promote better posture
  • Reduces tightening and contracting of trapezius muscles
  • Creates a slim, feminine neckline
  • Quick and efficient treatment
  • Fast-acting
  • Long-lasting results
  • Performed by a top Seattle cosmetic surgeon

For patients struggling with neck and shoulder pain, TrapTox is an excellent solution to help ease discomfort and provide a beautiful neckline.

Risks Of TrapTox

There is always some risk of unwanted side effects with any treatment, including TrapTox. However, Botox comes with low risks, and any lingering side effects are rare, including:

  • Redness at the injection site
  • Swelling at the injection site
  • Muscle weakness
  • Headaches
  • Nausea
  • Bruising

TrapTox Seattle patients must find the right provider to ensure there are no significant risks or side effects. Because Botox is combined with sterile saline, it is relatively safe for those with allergies. Because saline naturally occurs in the human body, Botox for Trapezius contains no allergens for those who have severe immune reactions. Dr. Javad Sajan at Allure Esthetics provides the best TrapTox treatment for all Seattle patients.

Trapezius Botox Treatment Seattle

Seattle TrapTox utilizes a series of Botox injections administered on each side of the trapezius muscles. It’s a relatively quick treatment, only lasting around five minutes. Dr. Sajan will administer 20 units of Botox on one side of the trapezius muscle and another 20 on the other. Forty units are the standard dose for TrapTox. However, depending on the severity of the tightness or muscle mass, the units can be upped to 30 units per side or a total of 60 units. This largely depends on the patient's needs, goals, and physical makeup. Dr. Sajan can help determine how many units of Botox the patient should receive during a consultation.

Frequently
Asked Questions

1. Do I Need A Consultation For Trapezius Botox?

Seattle TrapTox patients will need a consultation with Dr. Sajan to ensure the patient can safely receive the treatment. A consultation also allows Dr. Sajan to determine if TrapTox is the best solution for their discomfort or cosmetic issues. The good news is that the consultation can be done on the same day as the treatment so patients can have a quick and efficient visit at Allure Esthetics.

2. Is TrapTox Painful?

Trapezius Botox has the same discomfort as any other Botox treatment. Seattle TrapTox patients can expect to feel a prick and tingling sensation from each injection, but the pain is minimal. Dr. Sajan can also provide topical numbing medication if the patient needs it. After the treatment, discomfort, and tightness in the neck and shoulders should begin to decrease drastically.

3. What Does Botox For Trapezius in Seattle Cost?

Allure Esthetics offers incredible pricing for Botox for Trapezius patients in Seattle. The standard 40 units of Botox cost $439 for all units. However, depending on the patient’s needs and goals, they may require more units of Botox. In that case, Dr. Sajan will provide the patient with a custom quote during the consultation.

4. How Does TrapTox Slim The Neck And Shoulder Muscles?

While Botox for Trapezius is highly effective at combating neck tension, it can also shrink the neck, shoulder, and upper back muscles. By preventing the trapezius muscles from tightening, spasming, and contracting, the muscles will begin to slim. This slimming of the muscles creates a feminine and delicate neck, preventing the neck from looking hunched and bulky. It also eliminates inflammation and harsh knots in the shoulders, further slimming the neck.

5. When Can I Expect Results?

Results from Botox for Trapezius Seattle take effect about a week to ten days following the treatment. At most, it can take up to two weeks for the trapezius muscles to begin to relax and lose their tightness. Once the tightness begins to fade, patients will feel an improvement and lightness in the neck and shoulders as the muscle mass relaxes.

6. How Often Will I Need TrapTox Seattle Treatments?

For Botox for Trapezius patients in Seattle, Dr. Sajan recommends getting the treatment every four months to maintain the best results. However, patients can spread their treatments out every six to eight months to allow a more extended period in-between sessions. Patients can also wait until they feel the effects begin to fade and their muscles begin to tighten again. Maintenance sessions will help keep the muscles from tightening, spasming, or gaining more mass.
