TrapTox
TrapTox Treatment
TrapTox is a botulinum toxin treatment that redefines the neck-shoulder junction by relaxing the trapezius muscles. Using precise micro-doses of botulinum toxin, we soften bulky muscle bands that create a “boxy” appearance, resulting in a longer, more elegant neckline.
Beyond aesthetics, this treatment addresses functional concerns – reducing tension headaches, improving posture, and relieving strain from repetitive motions or stress. At Avanti Aesthetics, our clinicians combine anatomical expertise with artistic vision to create balanced results that appear perfectly natural. Ideal for patients seeking both cosmetic refinement and physical comfort, TrapTox delivers dual benefits in just one quick session:
- Chronic trapezius muscle tension
- “Tech neck” from prolonged screen use
- Stress-related shoulder stiffness
- Desire for a more elegant neck-to-shoulder contour
Who Benefits the Most?
- Office workers with desk-related tension
- Athletes with overdeveloped traps
- Those seeking a more feminine upper body silhouette
- Anyone tired of constant shoulder massage appointments

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens during a treatment session?
The treatment area is first thoroughly cleansed to prepare for the procedure. Topical anaesthesia may be applied to minimise discomfort. Using a fine needle, small quantities of Botulinum Toxin are carefully injected into the trapezius muscles. The procedure typically lasts between 15 to 30 minutes and involves minimal downtime. Most patients find the injections to be quick and relatively painless.
After the treatment, patients can expect to see gradual improvements in the appearance and feel of their neck and shoulder area. Full results are typically visible after a few weeks as the Botulinum Toxin takes effect.
It is important to follow the aftercare instructions provided to ensure optimal results and minimise any potential side effects. This includes avoiding strenuous activities and excessive heat for a specified period. Regular follow-up appointments may be recommended to maintain the desired results.
