How do I reduce my brows? Very broad and protrusive brow-ridge. (photos)

I have a very broad and protrusive brow-ridge and it is quite unattractive. It gives me a Neanderthal/Ape likeness that really stresses me out everytime I look in the mirror. It’s the Browridge and my forehead protrudes so far outward. This procedure is popular among trans people however I don’t wish to feminize my face whatsoever. I just need simply to make it all fit more uniformly and shave a little off. Unsure of my options; do I get a brow-bone reduction or is it just excess skin?

Brow bossing is a normal male feature. I address this several times each week, but, typically it is an issue for women. Your brow bossing is not extreme, though it can be changed if it bothers you substantially.
