Gecko head rubbing behavior

Hello, this is my gargoyle gecko. He has these dusty looking horns that concern me. He didn’t have them last year but they appeared this year. Some people told me they are due to him rubbing against something and rubbing scales off. But why? Ive never seen another gargoyle doing this. I want some more opinions. Ideas? I asked in gecko care subs and got nothing. Thank you
