22 year old female, why is my Adam's apple so prominent & why does it have 2 bumps? (Photos)

Question

Is there a procedure to fix both bumps?

Stephen Kleid, MBBS, FRACS · Answer

You have a long thin neck, so the normal features of your laryngeal skeleton are visible.
The top prominence seems to be your Thyroid lamina (the Adam's apple). It can be reduced, as we do for trans-women.
The lower prominence is probably your cricoid cartilage, which cannot be interfered with surgically. It might have an overlying thyroid gland remnant, such as a Pyramidal lobe, or even a high-riding or prominent isthmus - either of which can be excised. (An ultrasound and a clinical examination by an ENT/Head & Neck surgeon can sort that out for you).

There are two major cartilages there.  The top cartilage can be reduced straight away.  We use a method I designed many years ago which safely reduces this. We have done this for hundreds of women. Watch the video to learn more.

They are the Adam's apple prominent superiorly and cricoid prominent inferiorly.Only Adam's apple can be shave.
