Dermatology exam!: You should have a dermatologist examine the spot on your forehead as soon as possible. Whenever there is a significant change in the size &/or appearance of a lesion such as this on the skin it should be examined to check for possible skin cancer. The sooner any possible skin cancer is properly diagnosed & treated the better your chances for a good outcome. I wish you well with your health!
