Don't even ask how this happened.. Lol. But I can't seem to even these babies out for anything! I've used those blocks with different textures on them to smooth them, but nothing works. I even tried sand paper. (Bad idea)

A similar thing happened to me it took a wile but eventually it evened out by itself but it did take some time.

They just need to grow out. In the mean time you can paint then with a little extra polish wear the indent is and you won't be able to tell.

You can get nail polish called "ridge filler" Sally Hansen do one and it'll sink into the dent and even it out more. Otherwise just leave it, it'll grow out in a couple of months.

You can try to fill them in with bottled nail glue.

Then use the block to smooth it and paint over it.
