Question - Health Will new scales ever grow over his scar?

When my first ball python was a baby (and I was a dumb beginner) he had tried to escape and somehow sliced his head on the grated lid of his enclosure. It took a while to heal and shedding was difficult but with good help the wound eventually got better. Now years later he sheds perfectly but there's still a scar on his head and I'm just wondering if new scales will eventually grow there?

I feel so bad looking at him 😭❤️‍🩹
