I am 19 and I was born female. However, I am petite and my trachea is prominent which makes me self conscious. You always hear an "Adam's apple" being characteristic of males so that on top of the appearance overall bothers me. I was wondering if it is possible to reduce this? And if so how much does it generally cost? Thank you

Answer: Tracheal shave in women Adam’s apple reduction can be performed on both men and women regardless of motivating factors. If you find that the thyroid cartilage is too prominent, it can be reduced in size. The key is finding a qualified surgeon who understands the anatomy and performs surgery under dual visualization (looking at the vocal cords with a camera and the cartilage through a well camouflaged skin incision under the chin simultaneously) so as to not damage your vocal cords. I wish you well!
