After FUT strip surgery, does the "donor dent" eventually even out with the rest of the scalp or will this already remain?

After FUT strip surgery, there is typically a "donor dent" in the back of the head where tissue has been removed. This looks pretty obvious after first for those that have a tight scalp. Does this eventually change (or even out) over time?
