also many don't regrow from bare wood so small changes would be preferable.

I don't know what variety of conifer they are, perhaps something like Chamaecyparis lawsonia but I would just trim a little at first and make it take shape gradually to be on the safe side. Best to wait until springtime to start so you don't encourage new growth now.
