Can Botox Be Safely/Successfully Used to Decrease Muscle Mass in the Deltoid Muscles?

April 28, 2011
Asked By:Gems in Los Angeles, CA

Want to reduce muscle mass in deltoids. Can BOTOX be used for this and/or has anyone ever used botox for muscle reduction? My body is "proportionately challenged." My upper body is size 6, while my lower body is size 0-1. Because I was born with broad shoulders and narrow or no hips, having lifted weights for sports (in the past)has made the proportions even more severe. I'd like to attempt to reduce just a little of my deltoid muscles, so that I may fit clothing.
