I'm so happy to see a success story involving a scalping of a baby chick. I had one, too. These wounds are so awful looking, I think most people simply cull. But you did everything right - kept the wound clean and never let it dry out, so it will heal completely.

My chick has also healed, and is now a six-month old pullet. The only sign that she suffered a scalping is her feathers tend to stick up kind of like Woodstock on the Peanuts comic strip.

My rooster is still around, though. It was my fault I didn't make their playpen more secure so they couldn't stick their tiny heads through the fencing. Live and learn.
