have you experimented with lighting

more light from the sides and less straight on will cause highlights and shadows

the reason portrait/beauty lighting is more head on is to fill in the "character" in the skin and smooth everything over

not highly engraved - but the first is done from a bit of an angle- the second - light and camera from the front
