I know it can't really be spot reduced unless I underwent liposuction.

I'm still trying to see what HRT will contribute to this equation. Anyone with fat under the chin see a post HRT improvement?

Yes, but it was mainly because I lost weight. I don't think HRT really contributed much.

Yes i did lipo last year but surgeon told me that couldnt take out as much as i wanted too , so many nerves & jugular vein there , kinda dangerous

I would bet that you'd get far better results by doing exercises that target the chin area than from HRT. One I particularly like is the pullover. I know it's mainly a chest exercise, but when done right it really targets the chin area well. See an explanation on Renee Reyes' site where she goes over exercise tips for transgender women.

Actively pressing your tongue to the roof of your mouth may help a little bit to make it look smaller, just experiment in front of a mirror and you'll get what I mean.

Plastic surgery. I'm having a face & neck lift with upper eye lid work done on June 10th. They make an incesion under the chin & remove some of the fat as advised.
mtF, mid 50's, always a girl since childhood, HRT (Spiro, E & Fin.) since 8-13. Hormone levels are t at 12 & estrogen at 186. Face lift & eye lid surgery in 2014. Abdominoplasty/tummy tuck & some facial surgery May, 2015. Life is good for me. Love long nails & handsome men! Hopeful for my GRS & a nice normal depth vagina maybe by late summer. 5' 8", 180 pounds, 14 dress size, size 9.5 shoes. I'm kind of an elegant woman & like everything pink, nice & neet. Love my nails & classic Revlon Red. Moving back to Florida, so excited but so much work moving

It's a shame that lots of talking doesn't do the trick. You'd think it would work out the jaw muscles something fierce.

I tried that. It did not work for me.

a little bit of under chin and neck fat hides the adam's apple better and actually feminizes the neck for those of us who will never have thin necks, it is a bit of luck that it does.

My suspicions are confirmed, can't be spot reduced unless lipo'd.

Jaw exercises won't change it either (like doing 1 thousand ab crunches wont make the fat go away there either) Only full body cardio and overall fat loss.

I'd just hate to see my cheeks thin out.

Exercise/weight loss.  You can also try some of the skin tightening, anti-stretchmark lotions out there like palmers on your neck.
