One method of the present invention is used to restore a dimension in a metallic article by laser shock peening a surface area of {HEAD ~ a metallic substrate} of {TAIL ~ the metallic article} using a laser beam with sufficient power to vaporize material on the surface area to form a region having deep compressive residual stresses imparted by the laser shock peening extending into the substrate from the laser shock peened surface
