Default 2009 Lexus ES350 Leather Issue, Help!

I woke up this morning to notice a worn or burned area in my leather passenger seat (pictures attached). Is this fixable? I just got this car and want to keep it in good condition. I don't know how it happened in the first place.

Hm, looks like a repeated use impression/stretch mark rather than burn mark. Do you keep something in your right rear pocket at all times, e.g. keys, valet, etc?

I wouldn't be too worried about it, that area is covered when you sit on it (not visible) and likely will not puncture, looks like the leather only stretched there...

In that position, it does look like someone sat down with something sticking out of their back pocket.
