Thyroplasty

Adam’s apple reduction surgery consists in reducing and contouring the thyroid cartilage to aesthetically look more feminine.

​Through thyroplasty or thyroid cartilage shaving (Adam’s apple shaving), we decrease its size. It involves making a minimal incision at the level of a cervical crease to hide the scar and carefully shave the thyroid cartilage.

When it is done alone, it can be done under local anesthesia and light sedation.

​How Much Does it Cost?

The average cost in the United States is $9,300. In Colombia, the procedure is 30-50% less.
