MB Tex stetched?! How to fix?

Just got back from a road trip and the leather on the back portion of my passenger seat has a mark from the individuals back. My passenger is a small girl weighing about 125lbs at most! We were in the car about 4 hours. Can this be fixed? I've owned the car 5 yrs and had plenty of people riding shotgun and my seat doesn't even have a mark on the back portion of the seat.

Do your seats have leather inserts? If so they can be carefully shrunk back into shape with a hairdryer. Even the factories do this. Be careful not to make the leather too hot. Be patient.

It appears to have shrunk back on its own but thank you for the advice. It recently has gotten colder here so maybe that is why it took a while to get back to its normal appearance.
