Hairline Lowering
Many years ago we developed and described a technique to lower the female hairline. A browlift can be done and the frown lines treated with this procedure if necessary.

Reverse forehead lift to reshape a flat forehead
A customized implant could be inserted with the operation that lowers the hairline, lifts the brows and removes some of the frown muscles. It may also be possible to ligate a prominent vein of the forehead. You might also want to address the square masculine chin you describe.
