A tracheal shave is a type of facial feminization surgery. It’s used primarily by trans women and non-binary trans people who wish their faces to appear more feminine. It may also be done on cisgender women who want the same effect.
This procedure is commonly referred to as Adam’s apple reduction surgery. It’s also known as chondrolaryngoplasty, or thyroid cartilage reduction.
