Thank you in advance for answering my question.

I would like to know if there's any surgery that could reduce a prominent forehead and surgery that makes the brow bone more prominent and low (more masculine) like implants?

Yes. You have two options. The easiest is to simulate t more prominent supraorbital ridge by deep injection of a tissue filler (Perlane, Radiesse etc). If you like it it is repeatable. If you hate it, it will go away. The other is to have a burring of the frontal bone along with application of a methymethacrylate custom graft. It is a much more involved procedure. Consult a Craniofacial surgeon for it.
