If you have the jack stands under the frame, I can't see how it will ever dent the body. You weren't using the fender as a jacking point or a support point for the jack stand were you?

I had four jack stands under the jacking point of the car and lifted from the front end under the car and rear axle

Then it's not from lifting the car. Maybe you leaned against it.
