I’ve never had surgery. Why is my Areola missing “a chunk”, is it scarring? Is it simply lack of pigmentation? (Photo)

Hello! I am 25 years old! I’ve never had any breast surgery or anything like that. But I wanted to know why my right Areola looked like it was missing a chunk? Is that a scar? Is there anything abnormal looking about it? Is that indentation normal? I’m not sure if it’s simply lack of pigmentation or if it’s something to be concerned with? I have no pain or lumps.
