I have a long scar (stich mark after accident) on my forehead left side. I've been reading a lot about subcision on depressed scar treatment. Can this be treated by subcision?

Only subcession may not help you much. It also requires collagen remodelling with microneedling or co2 laser.

Subcision is adviced in depressed scars as you have mentioned, so for that you need to have depression for it to elevate. It works more in acne scars. Surgical scars will mostly not respond to subcision. I need to have scar photo to quide you better. There are many other way of scar management, to improve its quality and looks.
