Is the straight shoulder line filler or botulinum toxin?
Mostly toxin. The flat, horizontal neck-to-shoulder line comes from relaxing the trapezius muscle with botulinum toxin; filler plays no part in producing it. Hyaluronic acid plays a different role: it rounds a flat lateral deltoid as an optional shoulder cap. If your goal is the straight line, toxin is the lever, and putting filler into a bulky trapezius would work against you.
How much does shoulder treatment cost in Korea at Barog Clinic?
The two levers are priced separately. The optional shoulder-cap HA is priced per cc by volume band: ₩69,000 (1–50 cc), ₩49,000 (51–100 cc) and ₩39,000 (101–200 cc), VAT excluded. Trapezius botulinum toxin starts from ₩50,000 per 100 units (varies by product), VAT excluded; the number of units needed is set at the consultation, because it depends on how bulky the muscle is. You get both figures before agreeing to anything.
What is a 90 degree shoulder?
It is the K-beauty term for a straight, flat shoulder line where the slope from neck to shoulder runs closer to horizontal. It is achieved by relaxing the trapezius with botulinum toxin so the muscle stops pulling the shoulder up toward the ear. It is a toxin result, so it builds over a few weeks instead of the same day, and it wears off in time rather than lasting for good.
How long does trapezius toxin last?
Typically 3 to 6 months. The effect appears over 2 to 4 weeks as the muscle relaxes, holds for a few months, then gradually returns as the toxin wears off. Because it is a maintained result, people who like it repeat it periodically; the interval is set at review based on how quickly your muscle bulk comes back.
Will my shoulder feel weak afterward?
A temporary heavy or slightly weak feeling in the shoulder can occur, so the dose is kept conservative on purpose. The trapezius is a working postural muscle, so the cosmetic dose stops well short of one that would impair function. Requests for an aggressive dose to force a stronger line are declined for exactly this reason.
Can I combine trapezius toxin with a shoulder HA cap?
Yes, and some patients do: toxin to slim the top line and a small amount of HA to round the outer deltoid edge. They are separate levers doing different jobs, so combining them is a deliberate choice made at the consultation and not a default package. Each is priced on its own.
Does the injection hurt, and is there downtime?
Numbing cream can be applied, and most patients describe the trapezius injection as brief pressure and stinging. Injection-site tenderness and occasional bruising are the main after-effects, and there is no recovery week. You can return to normal activity the same day, keeping in mind the slimming result itself takes weeks to show.
How soon will I see the straight shoulder line?
Not immediately. The trapezius relaxes gradually, so the line change builds over roughly 2 to 4 weeks and is best judged at that point. If you are visiting Busan for it, expect the result to arrive after you have travelled home and not before you leave, and plan any photos accordingly.
Does shoulder toxin help with tension or posture, or is it only cosmetic?
The clinic offers it as a cosmetic contouring treatment for the shoulder line, and the assessment is built around that goal and around protecting muscle function. It is not framed here as a treatment for a medical shoulder or neck condition; if pain or a functional problem is your main concern, that is a different clinical pathway and is flagged as such at the consultation.
How is the filler product kept honest?
For the optional HA cap, sixteen authenticity and quantity certificates from filler manufacturers are displayed at the clinic, one per product line, and the session box is opened sealed at the chair. Barog Clinic is registered with KHIDI to receive international patients, a status that requires liability insurance and documented standards, with the English registration certificate shown on site.
Why choose Busan for shoulder-line work over Seoul?
Seomyeon, Busan sits on the city's main subway crossing, so getting to the clinic is straightforward, and it handles fewer international bookings than a comparable Seoul practice, which usually means shorter waits. Weekday hours run until 8pm, which suits a quick toxin session around a Busan itinerary, and the result builds quietly over the weeks that follow.
Which brand of botulinum toxin is used?
Product-brand names for injectables are not advertised on the site under Korean medical advertising rules, so the treatment is described generically as botulinum toxin. The specific product used is discussed directly at the consultation, where dose and material are agreed with you before injection.
