Trap Tox is a treatment that targets reducing the size or bulk of the trapizoid muscle also known as the traps. Using botulinum toxin, the injections allow the muscle to relax to help neck tension, improve posture and the lower the shoulders allowing for a more curved and feminine neck line. This treatment is excellent for patients that complain of neck tension or hunching over or gym goers who want to reduce the bulk of their trapizoid muscles.
With botulinum toxin injections it can take up to 4 weeks to fully settle or kick in to notice results. Repeat treatments are required to reduce the bulk or size of the muscle over time. With all injections its important to remember to avoid the gym, steam room, saunas and sun beds for 48 hours after treatment.
After your first intial face to face consultation wth a doctor or nurse, the treatment time is 15 minutes. Using tiny micro -fine needles the botulinum toxin is injected into four points on each side of the neck into the trapizoid. The area is then cleaned and after care is given.
No, this treatment lasts anywhere from 4-6 months when a retreatment would be required as the muscle regains movement. With repeat treatment, patients will see an increase in positive results and maintain those results longer.
At VIVA, our Trap Tox treatment is £400 for both shoulders including a top up if needed.
Often patients experience results for 4-6 months with results wearing off between this time frame while the muscle regains normal pre-treatment movement.
At VIVA, our nurses and doctors perform this treatment as it is a prescribed treatment using prescription only Botox.
Trap Tox takes 15 minutes to treat.
Most patients find trap tox relatively painless and quick procedure.
Trap Tox lasts between 4-6 months with a retreatment required to maintain results.
Dr. Rupert is so wonderful! It was my first time seeing him for botox and he made me feel so comfortable from the moment we sat down together – he walked me through everything from start to finish. My results are absolutely perfect! Couldn’t recommend him and VIVA more.
My experience at Viva skin clinics was flawless and I highly recommend them. I had a great first consultation for laser hair removal today – it was so in-depth and didn’t feel rushed and just another customer. They really care and took their time everything. You can’t beat the quality or the price – plus it’s gorgeous. Will be back thank you!
Really great visit with Dr. Rupert, who gave a comprehensive consultation and many helpful skincare suggestions that have made a difference. It’s been several weeks since my appointment and dermal fillers have settled well and look so natural. I highly recommend, particularly for masculinisation treatment.
