What is Shoulder Botox?
Shoulder Botox is a treatment in which a botulinum toxin preparation is injected into the shoulder muscles, especially the trapezius muscle, to relieve muscle tension. In addition to improving stiffness in the shoulders, the line from the neck to the shoulders can be cleared, giving a more beautiful overall impression of the upper body.
The relief of tension and stiffness in the shoulders can make the neck look longer and provide a smaller face effect, making this treatment popular not only among those suffering from stiff shoulders, but also among those who want to improve their appearance.
Especially for those who work at a desk or use a smartphone frequently, stiffness and tension around the shoulders may become chronic. For such patients, Botox can not only improve symptoms, but also improve posture and make the upper body feel lighter.
The Botox shoulder treatment is tailored to each patient’s individual condition. Injections are administered in small doses while the doctor checks the appropriate area, so natural-looking results can be expected. For those who are concerned about pain, anesthesia cream and cooling are provided so that the patient can relax and enjoy the procedure.
Shoulder Botox is a revolutionary treatment that can improve shoulder stiffness and appearance at the same time. If you are thinking, “I want to do something about the heaviness and tension in my shoulders,” or “I want to make my neck look more beautiful,” please contact us for a consultation. We will carefully counsel you and suggest the best treatment for you.

Features of Our Shoulder Botox
The formulation is Botulax
We use “Botulax” by Hugel of Korea for shoulder injections that require a number of units.
Botulax is approved by the KFDA (Korea Food and Drug Administration).
Botulax is a generic version of Botox Vista, which is sold by Allergan, and is therefore available at a lower price.
Treatment by an experienced physician
Shoulder Botox requires an accurate assessment of the shoulder muscle condition and injection into the appropriate area. Since the structure and tension of the muscles vary from person to person, the doctor carefully analyzes them through a preliminary medical examination. When injecting, the appropriate amount is adjusted according to muscle movement and the patient’s wishes, resulting in effective and natural-looking results.
Technology to minimize pain
To reduce pain and anxiety about injections, we use a special ultrafine needle. Furthermore, before the procedure, we apply surface anesthesia and cooling to minimize skin irritation. During the procedure, the doctor and staff will check the patient’s condition in detail so that the patient can receive treatment in a relaxed environment.
Careful Counseling
Before the procedure, we listen carefully to the patient’s condition and concerns about stiff shoulders, as well as his or her expectations for the procedure. We will also discuss your aesthetic needs in detail and create a treatment plan that is ideal for you. We place great importance on relieving feelings of “uncertainty” and “uneasiness,” and will answer any questions you may have in detail.
A complete aftercare system
After the procedure, we provide thorough follow-up to check the progress of the patient. The effects of Shoulder Botox will appear in a few days to a week, but we have a system in place to respond promptly in the event of any problems. We also provide re-treatment and advice to maintain the effects, so you can continue to receive treatment with peace of mind.
Effects and Benefits of Shoulder Botox
Shoulder Stiffness Reduction
Shoulder Botox effectively reduces the symptoms of chronic shoulder stiffness by relieving tension in the trapezius and other shoulder muscles. It works on the causes of stiff shoulders that modern people tend to suffer from, such as stiff shoulders caused by desk work, prolonged smartphone use, and stress. Shoulder Botox is attracting attention as a new option for those who have experienced only temporary relief from conventional massage and bodywork.
Reduce Pain and Discomfort
Discomfort and pain caused by stiff shoulders can have a significant impact on daily life. Receiving Shoulder Botox will not only reduce the heaviness and tension in your shoulders, but will also improve headaches and neck pain caused by stiff shoulders. The relief of shoulder tension will allow you to be more active and comfortable in your daily life.
Improving the line from the neck to the shoulders
Tense shoulder muscles can make the neck appear shorter and the shoulders more prominent. Shoulder Botox can help relax the muscles and create a smoother, more flattering silhouette from the neck to the shoulders. It is also recommended for those who are preparing for a wedding or event and want to look beautiful in an off-the-shoulder dress.
Improved Posture
When shoulder muscles are tense, it is easy to unconsciously develop a hunched or rolled shoulder posture. Shoulder Botox reduces muscle tension, making it easier to maintain a naturally correct posture. This will help to improve the lines of the shoulders and back and enhance the overall style of the body.
Better posture makes a big difference in how you look and feel, and you will be able to walk with more confidence. In addition, by maintaining correct posture, it is expected that stiff shoulders will be less likely to recur.
Cautions and Side Effects of Shoulder Botox
- It takes time for the effects to appear.
-
Shoulder Botox does not have immediate results after the procedure. Generally, it takes three days to a week for the effects to appear, and may not be suitable for those seeking immediate results. We can help you plan your treatment schedule and adjust the timing at the start of treatment so that you can achieve results in time for your specific event or lifestyle.
- Limited duration of effect
-
The effects of shoulder Botox are not permanent and usually last for 3-6 months. After that, the effects will gradually fade, requiring reapplication. We offer a variety of affordable plans and appointment schedules to ensure that patients can continue to receive treatment. We also offer advice on how to reduce the burden on patients and help them continue treatment at a comfortable pace.
- Temporary muscle weakness or discomfort
-
You may experience temporary muscle weakness or discomfort in your shoulder and neck muscles after treatment. Specifically, you may find it difficult to move your shoulders or to hold heavy loads. Usually, the condition improves within a few days to a few weeks, but additional consultations will be performed as needed and advice will be given on how to improve symptoms as soon as possible.
Flow of our shoulder Botox treatment
STEP1Counseling and consultation
First, we will ask the patient about his/her concerns and wishes in detail. We will confirm the degree of stiffness and tension in the shoulders, as well as past treatment history, to determine if Botox treatment is appropriate. We will also carefully explain the effects and risks of the treatment to eliminate any doubts or concerns you may have.
STEP2Treatment Plan Planning
Based on the results of the consultation, we will create a treatment plan that is best suited for each patient. We will determine the amount of Botox to be injected, the area to be treated, the number of treatments, and propose a specific schedule. At this time, we will also take into consideration the patient’s lifestyle and schedule to make a reasonable plan.
STEP3Botox Injection
After confirming the condition of the shoulder, an experienced physician will inject Botox into the target muscle, such as the trapezius muscle, using a very fine needle. The procedure is quick, usually taking 5 to 10 minutes. Pain during the injection is kept to a minimum, and many patients have commented that it was less painful than they expected.
STEP4Care and precautions after the procedure
After the procedure, we will explain how to care for the injection site to keep it clean and what precautions to take in daily life. For example, we recommend that you refrain from strenuous exercise, prolonged bathing, and alcohol consumption on the day of the procedure. In addition, to prevent internal bleeding, please refrain from massaging the treated area for about a week.
STEP5Follow-up
Follow-up contact and consultation will be made as necessary to check your progress after the procedure. In the unlikely event that any symptoms or concerns arise after the procedure, we are ready to consult with you at any time. We provide attentive support with the patient’s peace of mind and satisfaction as our first priority.
