ADAM'S APPLE REDUCTION IN RED BANK, NJ

UNDERSTANDING ADAM'S APPLE REDUCTION SURGERY

Adam's apple reduction, medically known as chondrolaryngoplasty, is a
specialized gender affirmation procedure designed to create a
smoother, more feminine throat contour for patients transitioning from
male to female.

WHAT IS ADAM'S APPLE REDUCTION?

Men typically have a more prominent thyroid cartilage, commonly
referred to as the Adam's apple. This surgical procedure involves
carefully reducing the size of this cartilage to create a softer, less
angular neck profile characteristic of feminine facial anatomy.

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

 	* Procedure performed under local or general anesthesia
	* Incision made across the bottom of the Adam's apple
	* Thyroid cartilage carefully shaved to reduce prominence
	* Typically completed within 1-2 hours
	* Outpatient surgical procedure

PREPARATION FOR SURGERY

Patients must undergo comprehensive psychological evaluation to ensure
readiness for the procedure. Pre-surgical recommendations include
medical clearance, medication adjustments, and arranging
post-operative support.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Recovery from Adam's apple reduction involves managing initial
swelling and discomfort. Patients can expect:

 	* Swelling peak within 24-48 hours
	* Complete swelling resolution in approximately six weeks
	* Potential temporary discomfort with speaking or swallowing
	* Scar typically becomes nearly invisible within one year
