Default Head and head gasket questions?

I have a 95 12 valve that i was replacing the head gasket on and when i pulled the head off to clean it and i noticed indentations around the valves and where the head gasket goes. I dont know if this is a problem or just normal. Should i get my head worked or just leave it as is?

you should always have your head resurfaced. they also can check for cracks and valve leaking.

i hear that price really differs from other areas. around here to have a head resurfaced is about 100.00.
