Adam’s Apple Reshaping in Cancun

Smooth Your Profile and Achieve a More Feminine Appearance

Known as reconstructive thyroidoplasty or “nut” removal. The thyroid cartilage is a characteristic feature more prominent in men than in women, as during puberty the larynx and thyroid cartilage grow, leading to a change in voice. It is important to reduce this prominence to achieve feminization in patients seeking a radical change, as the prominence and visibility of the cartilage reduce the desired femininity.

This surgery involves making an incision in the most protruding area of the neck, approximately 2 cm, and then proceeding to shave down the cartilage. It is essential that a certified and experienced plastic surgeon performs this procedure to avoid affecting the vocal cords and to reduce the cartilage considerably.

With Dr. Marco Carmona, a Certified Aesthetic and Plastic Surgeon, you can undergo your Adam’s apple reshaping in Cancun with complete confidence.
