A very shallow dent/depression. If the metal is stretched at all, all the dry ice in the world will not help. Usually speaking, a dent from a hail storm is a true dent and the metal will be stretched, so dry ice will not help. Sorry. Good question though! Good luck with those dents. Maybe go online to craigslist to an area where they don't have hail storms, or ebay, and get a used body panel to match yours. It is cheaper than a body shop and new parts.

Yes, before dentless repair shops. I've heard that they tried heating the surface with a industrial hair-dryer body shops use to get decals, trim and mirrors off with and then touching the spot with the dry ice. You stand a chance of melting and/or damaging the paint though.

You may hear some funny noises while doing it. I use dry ice on steel all the time on the job and will make the steel sing. It might work
