Scab. Scar. What to do?

Scab. Scar. What to do?

I peeled a scab from a pimple on my forehead about 6 months ago. Stupidly, I never let the skin grow back and now I have what looks like a half inch wide spot without the emulsion layer of the skin. What can I do? Is there any way to get the top layer of skin to grow back? I've thought about creating a new scab on top of it, in hopes that it would regrow a new top layer.. but I also don't want it to get any worse. So, does anyone have any ideas? Please please help. I would really appreciate it.

I would stop picking your skin. You may have damaged your skin. Try using a scar removal cream, try this first, if this doesn't work, cosmetic surgery is an option.
