Uhh… there is really no way to “fix” dings, you just got to live with them. They happen. Unless you want to pay money to have someone satin your yoyo, which can cost alot, and IMO is not worth it for two little dents. I would just leave it. It happens to all of us. ---

You can’t really fix them. You can try to satin it. ---

Well if it’s just the feel is bugging you you could sand it , but it will scratch your anno, but I sanded my hitman after a narly string break, and totally saved it. ---

Nah, the first time you ding a mint yoyo you always feel bad… or your first metal… for me, I felt even worse because my “friend” decided to try to cut my string with a scissor in play and scraped off the ano.
