Identifying a brain surgery scar?

I recently had memories of brain surgery as a child and shaved my head to find a small linear scar along with a small circular (drill holes size) scar just above and to the left of the linear scar. I have a picture and was hoping a neurosurgeon would be able to confirm or deny that this is from a surgery, or typical of a specific type of brain surgery?

There is nothing about this scar that definitely identifies it as brain surgery, and it cannot tell us if it’s from a particular type of surgery. Hospital records, if they could be found, would be the only way to know for sure.
