Child Got Too Close to a Candle, Burned Scalp in 2 Spots

My 3 yo Grandaughter has 2 spots on her scalp where she had gotten too close to a candle and burned the hair. The spots did blister and have healed nicely. They are still red-pink in color. Is there a chance that hair will grow back in these areas?

If the time since injury is within a year or so, it might come back. Otherwise, see an expert and a simple approach with hair transplants might easily solve the problem. Of course, a 3 year old requires special considerations and I am not suggesting a surgery. Start off by getting an opinion from an expert.
