How can I fix this dent in my forehead from an accident? (Photo)

June 12, 2020
Asked By:aplusmerchant in Sacramento, CA

This dent is about a square inch right in the middle of my forehead. If feels like the bone is actually dented and not just fat atrophy. It's very embarrassing and I already consulted a plastic surgeon and he was thinking about doing a fat transfer but decided not to do it because he said it could cause blindness. He is a relatively new doctor so I'm hoping someone with more experience might have some more options for me. Thanks so much! I'm really hoping there is something that can be done.
