Results vary by patient, but most Washington providers report 6 to 18 months of sustained benefit from a full Trap Botox series.
Most patients wait 24 hours before applying makeup to avoid irritation on freshly-treated skin.
The trapezius is the large muscle running from the neck to the shoulders that tightens when you stress or hunch. Injecting Botox along its upper portion relaxes it. Within two weeks tension eases, and over two to three months the muscle, no longer overworked, shrinks visibly, so the shoulder line drops and the neck looks longer. The cosmetic version was nicknamed Barbie Botox for that longer-neck look.
Not noticeably for most people. The dose relaxes the upper trapezius without disabling it, and the other shoulder muscles carry normal loads. Some people notice mild fatigue in the shoulders in the first weeks with heavy lifting. Athletes who rely on the trapezius for their sport should discuss dosing.
A large muscle needs a substantial dose, commonly forty to seventy-five units per side, which is why treatment costs more than facial Botox despite using the same product. Relief lasts four to six months, and the slimming effect builds with repeat treatments.
Tension headaches that begin in tight shoulders and travel up the neck may improve, because the source of the tension is relaxed. It is not a treatment for migraine, which has its own Botox protocol through a neurologist.
