Hello,

Welcome to healthcare magic.

I understand from your query that you are concerned about a scar on your forehead.

You could apply a gel containing silicone, heparin and allantoin twice a day for 3 months for faster clearance of the scar.

Bio oil also should help as it has retinol. You could combine it with the above mentioned gel.

Hope this helps you.

Take care.
