Adams apple

In the links section under CD basics it said other than surgery or turtle necks there was a lotion. Any thoughts or ideas.

No lotion could ever change the shape of one's adam's apple. The adam's apple is made of thyroid cartilage, and has a central ridge elevation commonly known as the adam's apple. Lotion, even if it could penetrate the skin and reach the adam's apple, won't effect cartilage.

Mindy, I have a larger adam's apple and do not let it slow me much down getting out and about.

Someone can correct me but I think its surgically referred to as a "tracheal shave" or something like that. It is not all that expensive and hardly leaves a scar and also does not affect your voice. I had a friend who had it done and she is very happy with her results. Don't hold me to it and I know she shopped around but $2200.00 comes to mind.
