Polish shiny side of Daytona SS, flatten the surface?

Anyone has any idea on the polishing method and results on the shiny side of the 116520 case? Originally it appears as having some curvature vertically (from the top to bottom case line), will it turn out flat after polish? or the curvature will remain?

Mine is due for full service, and i wonder should i include a polish. Side has few tiny "dot-like" dent.

If its done by a RSC the watch will be polished exactly the same process as when the case was new.

Would RSC ever over polish or they know to do it just enough?

It's done manually so will depend on the skill of the person that manages your watch.
