SHOULDER FILLERS (直角肩)
Enhance shoulder contour and achieve a sculpted, balanced silhouette with our precision shoulder filler treatment (直角肩).
Shoulder fillers (直角肩) are an emerging aesthetic treatment designed to refine and enhance the shape of the shoulders, creating a more balanced and proportionate silhouette.
Unlike Botox, which works by relaxing the trapezius muscle to achieve a slimming effect, shoulder fillers involve the use of dermal fillers to add volume, smooth irregularities, and improve overall shoulder aesthetics.
This procedure is gaining popularity among individuals seeking a more defined shoulder line, improved posture, or correction of volume loss due to aging or weight fluctuations.
Shoulder Fillers is Perfect for
A person with narrow shoulders and a proportionally larger face, with a drastic contrast between the upper body and facial structure.
A person with gently sloping shoulders, with an awkward downward angle from the neck to the arms
Fillers can be injected in various areas of the shoulder to enhance contour, improve symmetry, and create a more sculpted appearance.
Common injection sites include:
Lateral Deltoid – To enhance shoulder width and create a more defined, athletic look.
Anterior Deltoid – To add volume and smooth transitions between the upper chest and shoulder.
Posterior Deltoid – To improve shoulder projection and create a balanced, rounded appearance.
Acromial Area (Top of the Shoulder) – To soften bony prominences and create a smoother shoulder cap.
Supraspinatus/Trapezius Junction – To enhance the slope and transition between the neck and shoulder for a more elegant contour.
Achieving a 90-degree shoulder with shoulder fillers (直角肩)
The 90-degree shoulder aesthetic—where the neck-to-shoulder and shoulder-to-arm angles form a near 90-degree shape—has gained popularity among Asian females.
It has sparked divided opinions in the beauty and fashion world. Some see it as the ideal shoulder shape, with thousands of tutorials online teaching exercises to achieve this look. In the entertainment industry, celebrities and influencers have fueled the trend, showcasing their sculpted shoulder lines in photos and videos.
However, anatomically, the shoulder joint is highly mobile, and natural shoulder alignment varies. While some may naturally have straighter shoulders, achieving this look through training alone isn’t always realistic.
Hence, many seek the shoulder fillers (直角肩) treatment as it can help enhance the contour and create the desired 90-degree shoulder effect.

FAQ
Shoulder fillers (直角肩) are injectable dermal fillers used to enhance the shape, contour, and definition of the shoulders. They work by adding volume to specific areas, creating a more sculpted, balanced, or broader appearance. Hyaluronic acid (HA) or collagen-stimulating fillers like Radiesse or Sculptra are commonly used.
Anyone looking to enhance shoulder definition, correct asymmetry, smooth out bony prominences, or achieve a more athletic or feminine contour may be a good candidate. Shoulder fillers are ideal for individuals who want a non-surgical alternative to shoulder implants or fat grafting.
The longevity of shoulder fillers depends on the type of filler used. Hyaluronic acid fillers typically last 6–12 months, while collagen-stimulating fillers (like Radiesse or Sculptra) can last up to 2 years with proper maintenance.
Shoulder filler treatments usually involve minimal downtime. Patients may experience mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites, which typically resolve within a few days. Strenuous shoulder exercises should be avoided for 24–48 hours post-treatment.
If hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are used, they can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed. However, collagen-stimulating fillers like Sculptra or Radiesse cannot be immediately reversed, so patients should carefully discuss their goals before treatment.
