ABSTRACT

Depressed forehead scars are not frequently reported in the literature in the West African sub-region. Although they are not commonly reported, few cases were managed and are to be documented. We had seen a case of depressed forehead scar which was due to post frontal avulsion injury of the forehead with an intact posterior table of the frontal bone. He complained of aesthetic and psychological problems of the scar on presentation. The scar revision was done with polymethylmethacrylate bone cement with simple wound closure based on patient's choice after counseling. The treatment outcome was satisfactory. We intend to highlight the use of polymethylmethacrylate bone cement and simple wound closure as an option in the revision of depressed forehead scars as well as add a report to the volume of literature from the sub-region.
