I have heard of tracheal shaving as the most common option but I would still like to know if it can be done this way as well. I am looking for an alternative to tracheal shave to reduce a prominent adam's apple.

Answer: Trach shave vs. fat trasnfer Shaving the tracheal prominence surgically is a much more refined and predictable procedure than fat grafting, which may create irregularities and fullness in the neck. With modern techniques, a tracheal shave is safe and the scar is easily camouflagable.

Answer: Fat transfer instead of adam's apple reduction I would not recommend doing fat injection as opposed to a trach shave. Reducing the Adam's Apple is a safe procedure with limited downtime in the right hands. If you are wanting to avoid any risk to the vocal cords you should go to an experienced surgeon who looks at the vocal cords with a camera during the procedure.
