Scar looking line on my hedgie's forehead?

While giving our girl Natalia an oatmeal bath to try and clear up some dry skin, we noticed this purpley raised line on her exposed skin down her forehead. (You know, the line where their quills part)

It doesn't seem to bother her I guess and I've no idea how long its been there, as I never really look. Any idea what it is? Any relation to her incredibly dry skin? She was recently treated for potential mites, although the vet never confirmed mites as she wouldn't let him, she's been a lot less itchy since, though we thought the bath would help with the leftover dandruff. Picture below,



We could take her to the vet but she really is not fond of vets and he'd have to put her under which makes me so nervous... He's the only one who will take her in town, but has hardly really dealt with hedgehogs. so if anyone can confirm if they've seen it before, much appreciated!!
