With that damage there, they're going to get a dent puller that puts small rivets in the panel to pull it out. Then, they'll putty the crap out of it, sand it down, and put a couple coats of paint and clearcoat on there. There's no metal that is severely creased and putty could be used to fill the rest of the small divots.
+1 That'll buff right out. Doesn't look to bad at all.
