About the treatment

The trapezius is the large muscle running from the neck out across the shoulders. For many who sit at a desk, train heavy or simply carry tension in their body, it becomes chronically overactive. The result: sore shoulders, a stiff neck, tension headaches that will not go away no matter how much you massage or stretch. Traptox addresses this by reducing the muscle's activity, and with that, a large part of the discomfort disappears. But there is an aesthetic dimension too. When the trapezius relaxes and gradually decreases in size, the neck looks visually longer and the neck contour becomes more slender. It is an effect that many describe as surprisingly positive. You look more relaxed, the shoulders drop to a more natural position, and the entire upper body gains a more elegant line. Traptox has become hugely popular on social media for exactly this reason. The treatment takes about 15 to 20 minutes. The effect is noticed within one to two weeks and normally lasts 3 to 6 months. With regular sessions, you can keep the tension in check long-term, and the muscle adapts so that the problems gradually diminish. How Traptox works: - Relieves pain in tense shoulders and neck - Reduces muscle knots and spasms - Improves mobility in neck and shoulders - Creates a slimmer, more elegant neckline The treatment is performed by a registered nurse at Dibélle. We book a follow-up within 2 to 3 weeks. We advise pregnant and breastfeeding individuals against this treatment.

Before your visit

How to prepare

Avoid blood thinners

Avoid Ibuprofen, Aspirin and alcohol at least 48 hours before your treatment. This reduces the risk of bruising and swelling.

Arrive makeup-free

We cleanse the treatment area beforehand, but it goes quicker and smoother if you arrive without makeup on your face.

Plan your day

Most treatments have minimal downtime and you can resume daily activities right away. Avoid intense exercise on the same day, though.

Frequently asked questions

What is Traptox?

Traptox is Botox in the trapezius muscle, the large muscle running from the neck across the shoulders. The treatment reduces chronic muscle tension, relieves neck pain and creates a slimmer shoulder contour. At Dibélle in Helsingborg, the treatment is performed by a licensed nurse.

How long does Traptox last?

The effect is noticeable within 1 to 2 weeks and typically lasts 3 to 6 months. With regular treatments, results last longer as the muscle gradually adapts.

Can Traptox help with tension headaches?

Yes, many people who suffer from tension headaches caused by tight shoulders and neck experience noticeable relief after Traptox. When the trapezius relaxes, headaches often diminish.

Does Traptox affect my training?

You can continue training as usual, but the trapezius muscle becomes less active. Many people find they can focus better on other muscle groups when the shoulders are not overcompensating.

Does Traptox give a slimmer neck?

Yes, when the trapezius relaxes and decreases in size, the neck appears longer and the shoulder contour becomes slimmer. This is an aesthetic bonus in addition to the pain relief.

How much does Traptox cost at Dibélle?

At Dibélle in Helsingborg, Traptox starts from 4,500 SEK. The price may vary depending on your individual needs. Book a complimentary consultation for a personal assessment.
