So you had to fill that small recess somehow, right?
Bravo, well done! 
No a store did that. I can’t do that.
I see… Some things are better entrusted with a pro repairman; good decision.
Anyway, the fingerboard looks so much better now… 
They fixed more. Guitar was a little bit wrapped. It sounds much better now.
I have always wondered how those divots develop. It is the string grinding at the fretboard? Pressing way too hard? Long fingernails?
I am pretty sure the fix is to mix fretboard sawdust with a glue base (cyanoacrylate?) and fill it.

I have no clue how they fixed it.
Think it comes from sweating fingers
However they fixed it. It sure looks much better now.
Don’t even look like the same fret board. I’d have thought two different guitars even.
Looks like they did some fret work too.
It really looks good now.
Seems you found the right luthier to me.
Happy NGD! So to speak…

Yes, there’s a video at stewmac on the subject… if you gathered some sawdust from the same wood and then… oh, I think they used cyanoacrylate. Until now, I did all my repairs by myself and enjoyed it!
I think long fingernails help (or harm ) here, but in the very long run, probably even the string pressing on the wood is enough on guitars that are played a lot.

You are Right, if it’s a little hole or scratch, that’s how I deal with it, I have even taken a little bit of fingerboard from the bottom and repaired bigger holes, cheers HEC
