Hello everyone. I completely agree with Richard and Dan - in this case, without replacing the veneer, only a wax filler of the appropriate shade can help. I would also recommend applying one layer of tinting varnish to the entire body after the wax filler, and then one or two layers of transparent glossy varnish. Then you will definitely not see any differences in the shades of the repair traces.
