Does A Dent And Bump On Forehead Caused After An Injury,get Cured With Time?

My daughter is age 5. When she was about 1 and learning to walk she fell over and bumped her forehead leading to a goose egg which gradually reduced, and I think it would have disappeared completely except the next day - when a small bump was still visible - she bumped her head again in exactly the same place. This made a dent in the soft bump which is still visible today. She isn t aware of it and it doesn t cause any pain, but will it ever go?
