Weeping Willow Tree Bark Damage

Question

Most of the bark on my weeping willow tree is coming off–we have had extreme heat as of late and it is dry. The trunk is small -about 4 inches in diameter and 10 feet high. Up to this point it has been doing great, though some of the leaves are yellowing, but overall it still seems to be in good shape. Will it heal itself without this bark?
