Removing Carpet Dents

I have a commercial type carpet in my upstairs apartment which I rent out. The person left at the end of the month and I now see marks in the carpet caused by an elliptical machine. Can anyone tell me how to get these out or fade them out?

Thank you.

If it's a synthetic fiber, hold a hair dryer set on Medium in one hand and rub the nap with the other. Just be careful that you don't get too close or it gets too hot.
