Shallow Indents on Face from Squeezing Spots

I am a 20 year old female who has very shallow, surface indents on my skin from squeezing spots. The indents are only noticeable in certain light and sometimes look like open pores rather than scars. However, I'm so anxious that over time these small indentations will become deeper. Is this the case? Can very shallow indentations deepen or will they stay the same or improve as I get older and the skin regenerates? It is safe to say I no longer squeeze my spots!
