Why are my shoulders so pointy and can they be corrected? (photos)

Question

I have a very pronounced bony point on my shoulders which I have yet to see on anyone else I have encountered. It bothers me very much because it makes my shoulders look chunky and wide and unfeminine. I don’t understand why others have smooth, sloped shoulders that round down. What causes this issue and can it be fixed? For example shaven down, exercise etc?

The type of shoulders you have is something that most people wish they could possess. I think your shoulders are just fine and you don't need to do anything, but if you are considering for some reason to round out your shoulders more, fat grafting would be your best option as it will produce natural and permanent results.
