Trapezius lift

A tense or highly developed trapezius muscle (trapezius muscle) can cause a wide, heavy shoulder line and neck problems. With a Trapezius lift with botulinum toxin the muscle can be subtly relaxed, making the shoulders appear slimmer and the neck appear longer.

At Xavier Clinics we combine aesthetic refinement with medical expertise. The treatment is performed with a carefully adjusted dosage, aimed at both cosmetic improvement and reduction of muscle tension.

What is a Trapezius lift?

A Trapezius lift is a treatment in which botulinum toxin is injected into the upper fibers of the trapezius muscle.

By temporarily relaxing the muscle:

  • Reduces excessive muscle tension

  • Can shoulders appear less 'raised'?

  • Makes the neck look longer and slimmer

  • Creates a more elegant neck-shoulder line

The treatment is popular with clients with tense shoulders or a wide shoulder line.

Who is a Trapezius lift suitable for?

A Trapezius lift with botulinum toxin is suitable for:

  • Tense or painful shoulders

  • Chronic neck and shoulder complaints

  • Strongly developed trapezius muscles

  • A broad or heavy shoulder line

  • Aesthetic refinement of the neck and shoulders

During the consultation we will assess whether the treatment is suitable for your complaints and wishes.

Consultation with the doctor

Before all treatments, a consultation is scheduled. During this consultation, the doctor will listen to your wishes and explore the options available to achieve them. The doctor will thoroughly inform you about the pre- and aftercare, the expected results, any risks, and the recovery process for the chosen treatment.

The treatment

Once you've chosen to undergo treatment with us, we'll ask you to complete a medical questionnaire and sign a treatment agreement beforehand. If you take a lot of medication, please bring your medication list to your appointment.

Photos will be taken of you both before and after the treatment for your medical records. In some cases, the skin is locally anesthetized with a numbing cream or anesthetic solution before the treatment.

Aftercare

After the treatment, you will receive an aftercare form by email. You do not need to stay at the clinic and can go home immediately. It is common for the skin to be red and swollen after the treatment, and sometimes some bruising may occur. These side effects will disappear on their own. It is important that you cool the treated area well with the cool pack you received, if advised. If you experience severe bruising, we recommend applying Arnica cream to the treated area.

It is recommended that you avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for the first four hours after treatment. Exposure to intense heat (sun, sauna, or tanning bed) is also discouraged for one week after treatment. We advise against having a facial for two weeks after treatment. You can assess the final result after two weeks.

If you have any questions about your recovery, please feel free to contact us.

Risks

The risk of complications is very small. As with any procedure, there is a small risk of infection or allergy.
