Possible to Reduce the Size of an Adam's Apple?

Jacob_D
Thyroid cartilage reduction? I am a male with a large adam's apple (see picture). I would like it reduced in size, while necessarily maintaining protrusion. Is this a particularly risky procedure? Can it be performed without making an incision directly over the adam's apple (maybe above it instead)? Would you do it?
