New Delhi, Nov 09 (ANI): Patients express high satisfaction after cosmetic surgery to reduce the masculine appearance of the 'Adam's Apple' according to a study. The procedure which is sometimes called 'tracheal shaving' is known to plastic surgeons as aesthetic chondrolaryngoplasty. The Adam's Apple, developing during puberty from an increase in the size of the larynx and thyroid cartilage, is more prominent in males than females.
