Trap Tox, short for Trapezius Botox, is a specialized neuromodulator treatment that targets the trapezius muscles along the neck and shoulders. Also known as “Barbie Botox,” this treatment uses FDA-approved neuromodulators (like Botox) to relax overactive trapezius muscles, creating a more elongated neckline and refined shoulder contour.
Overactive trapezius muscles can contribute to shoulder tension, neck discomfort, and a bulky upper body appearance. At CONTŌR, we strategically inject small amounts of neuromodulator into the trapezius muscles to gently relax this area. Over time, this promotes a more graceful, elongated neck and slims the shoulder profile, while often providing relief from muscle tension and discomfort.
Trap Tox offers both aesthetic refinement and therapeutic relief. From a cosmetic perspective, it can create a more elongated, graceful neckline, a slimmer and more refined shoulder contour, and a softer, less bulky appearance through the upper body, enhancing overall balance between the neck and shoulders.
At the same time, it can help reduce built-up tension in the neck and shoulders, relieve chronic tightness in the trapezius muscles, and improve overall comfort, especially for those who experience strain from overactive muscles or posture-related stress.
At CONTŌR, each treatment is fully customized to your anatomy and goals, whether you’re looking for subtle sculpting, tension relief, or a combination of both.
Results typically begin to appear within 7 to 14 days, with full effects visible by about 4 weeks. You’ll notice gradual muscle relaxation, shoulder softening, and neck elongation developing over this period.
The effects usually last 3 to 5 months, depending on your individual muscle activity and treatment plan. For optimal and longer-lasting results, we recommend at least 2 successive sessions spaced 4 months apart. With consistent treatments, results can become more refined and may last longer over time as the muscles adapt.
Most guests describe Trap Tox as painless. The injections are quick, and any discomfort is minimal, often compared to a small pinch or brief sting. At CONTŌR, we use ultra-fine needles and strategic injection techniques to maximize comfort.
Some guests may experience minor tenderness or soreness in the treated area for 24 to 48 hours after treatment, which is completely normal and resolves quickly.
There’s little to no downtime with Trap Tox. You can return to work or your daily activities immediately after treatment. Some guests may experience minor redness, tenderness, or light bruising at the injection sites, which typically resolves within a day or two.
Please note: individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding are not suitable candidates for this treatment.
To minimize the risk of bruising or swelling:
When taken two or more days before treatment, Arnica and Bromelain can reduce bruising. Always consult your primary physician before taking any new supplements.
After your Trap Tox treatment, please follow these guidelines.
Important: we always recommend regular follow-up with your primary care doctor as well as an orthopedist if you have chronic pain. Trap Tox can provide relief, but ongoing medical monitoring with your doctors is still essential.
Trap Tox treatment at CONTŌR is $950 per session.
For best results, we recommend at least 2 successive sessions spaced 4 months apart to see significant slimming and optimal muscle relaxation. Your provider will create a personalized treatment plan during your consultation based on your goals and anatomy.
While Trap Tox is often sought for its aesthetic benefits, many guests experience significant relief from chronic shoulder and neck tension. By relaxing overactive trapezius muscles, the treatment can reduce muscle tightness and knots, shoulder and neck pain, tension headaches originating from the upper back, and postural discomfort.
That said, Trap Tox is not a substitute for proper medical care. At CONTŌR, we always recommend follow-up with your primary care physician and, if appropriate, an orthopedist or physical therapist for chronic pain management.

Trap Tox, short for Trapezius Tox, is a treatment that uses Botox (or similar neuromodulators) to relax the trapezius muscles along the neck and shoulders. It’s often called the “Barbie Botox” treatment because it can help create a longer, more elegant neckline, slim the shoulders, and relieve tension caused by overactive trap muscles.
During a Trap Tox session, a series of small injections are placed strategically into the trapezius muscles. The neuromodulator gently relaxes these muscles, softening their appearance and reducing bulk over time. The result is a smoother shoulder contour and a more elongated, graceful neck line; often with the added benefit of decreased muscle tension or tightness.
There’s little to no downtime with Trap Tox. You can return to work or your daily activities immediately after treatment. Some clients may experience minor redness, tenderness, or light bruising at the injection sites, which typically resolves within a day or two
Results typically begin to appear within 7–14 days, with full results visible by about 4 weeks. The effects usually last 3–5 months, depending on your individual muscle activity and treatment plan. With consistent treatments, results can become more refined and longer lasting over time.
Most clients describe Trap Tox as very tolerable. The injections are quick, and any discomfort is minimal—often compared to a small pinch or sting.
Please note: Individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding are not suitable candidates for this treatment. Avoid alcohol, Aspirin, Advil and other NSAIDs to prevent risk of bruising from the procedure
After your neuromodulator trap tox treatment it is important to avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area, as this can cause the medication to spread to unintended muscles. We always recommend regular follow up with your primary care doctor as well as an orthopedist if you have chronic pain.
