At this point, it was revealed that the patient had developed skin excoriation (1.5 x 1.5 cm) size over her left maxilla [Figure 1]. Hyperpigmented areas had developed over left infra and lateral orbital regions signifying deep tissue injury [Figure 1]. A significant headrest impression was found over the left forehead [Figure 1].
