Try a steamer, vacuum, or shampoo, but you'll still have to wait a bit for the dents to come out. After sitting there for a long time, it takes time for the strands to regain their original shape.
I've also used a brush, but make sure it's soft as not to damage the carpet, or do it softly.

Put an ice cube in each of the dents, wait for it to melt, and then pull the fibers out with a hair pick.

I've always heard that if you put an ice cube in the dent, let it melt, and then let it dry on its own, the carpet should regain its spring in that area.

Wait a few days. It'll go away.
A vacuum cleaner will help lift the pile too.

Ice Cubes. Place ice cubes on the indentations. This trick can be found in some household hint books. :)
