i got it removed at the doctors with some liquid and the scab formed in 3 days and came off within about 4 days and now i use a cream but you can still see the scar with a white surrounding it, will it come off?

Lack of improvement in forehead scar
It is impossible to deduce what was done based on your history. Photos would be very helpful to give us some idea about the scar prior to the treatment and your early results. Scars do take up to one year to mature and look their best. It is possible that your scar will continue to improve over the next year but it would be much more helpful to know what was done and see a picture.
