Help with "oil canning"

Hey guys, the roof of my cab has some large dents that are oil canned. I can put a suction cup in the middle of the dent & when I apply suction, the dent pops out.

My questions:
1. I assume I need to work the outer ring where the dent starts?
2. I plan on slapping as best I can then using localized heat, yes/no?
3. Apply heat dead on the outer ring, to the inside or outside?

I googled & you tubed oil can dents to try & edumacate myself but I don't think it made me any smarter!
