What is Trap Tox?
Trapezius Botox, commonly referred to as Barbie Trap Tox, is a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting Botox into the trapezius muscles, which are located at the back of the neck and across the shoulders. By relaxing these muscles, Botox not only reduces the size and bulk of the muscles but also creates the appearance of a longer neck and slimmer shoulders.
This treatment has both cosmetic and therapeutic benefits, including:
- Slimming the neck and shoulders for a more delicate, feminine look.
- Reducing muscle tension and alleviating discomfort from tight trapezius muscles.
Who is a Good Candidate for Trapezius Tox?
