SMD can be used to apply a constraint along one axis only. So you
could use SMD for the lipid headgroups with a velocity of 0 and a
direction of 0 0 1. It only applies to the center of mass actually,
but hopefully this will be sufficient for your purposes. Then you
can just use harmonic constraints for your protein.
