Let it be: Since the "indentation" is not causing any symptoms, let it be. If it is a cosmetic issue you could have it removed, though I would not recommend that because any surgery will leave a scar, no matter how small. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
