It is important to point out that there is no such thing as "spot reduction". When it comes to fat, no matter where it rears its ugly head, there's only two things that are effective. Diet and cardio. The exercises I posted above are geared more towards increasing muscle mass in certain places, not eliminating fat. By sticking with a clean diet and upping the cardio frequency, your trouble area will start to disappear. Another myth is if doing high reps with less weight can tone an area. The answer to that is no also. All you'll effectively do is loose muscle mass. My advice to you is to stick to the heavy weights, up your cardio, and change your diet. You can also try starting your workout with a decline press or dips. This way you can use heavier weight because you're fresh and by adding more mass to your lower pecs, it'll reduce the appearance of the excess fat. If you have trouble with planning your diet, check the nutrition section on clean bulking and post what your diet is as of right now and some members will help you.
