I am a transitioning transgender woman and I have always disliked my protruding Adam's Apple. It was always a source of discomfort for me. It was the one of two procedures that I wanted to make sure that I got as I transitioned, the other being a hair transplant. I had an initial consult with Dr. Tholen and he explained to me the details of the procedure and what I could expect after the surgery was completed.
