Is it possible to reshape the forehead without doing an "eyebrow" lift? (photo)

My eyebrows drape over my eyes and I would like to keep them like that, but my forehead is a little bumpy. i know men are supposed to have some bumpiness, but there are guys who have smooth forehead. I am wondering if its possible to recontour the forehead without affecting the position of the eyebrows? Thank you.

Thank you for the great question and photos! While it is difficult to tell definitively from the photos it looks like you have some asymmetry of both your eyebrows and eyelids. The second photo it appears you may even have something called ptosis of the eyelid causing one side to droop slightly...
