I've done it on a pair of Thiel 3.5's several times when my kids were little. You do not stick the needle in the fabric of the dome, you use it to grab a surface thread and push to one side or the other, until the cone pops back out. Several dealers do this with all their demo gear as invariably somebody always sticks their finger where it does not belong. Is is perfect, no...Does it work, yes.

use masking tape, laid across the surface where the dent is. A few attempts to gently pry away the tape and it will pull enough of the fabric surface with it to pop out the dent.
It the metal tweeter,just the dome is all thats visable.All I have ever seen in previous posts is stuff on larger drivers,the vacum trick etc.Being so small and on the very outer edge,am I correct in believing its ok?I will try another seach also
The vacumn trick can be used on tweeters. you could also try blu tack and I've heard of people using low tack masking tape. If you search there are plenty of methods available. If the sound is not affected I'd probably leave well alone.
