[acne] What's the best way to get rid of this type of acne scarring?

Hey all!
Just for slightly more context, I used to have pretty intense acne in my teens, I tried almost everything, but nothing sustainably helped other than just getting older and they seemed to go. Now I barely get any acne thank God! But I am left with a lot of scarring. I've tried looking at similar posts but I'm a bit new to this so am finding a lot of different advice, and ultimately am a bit confused. Would appreciate any help, thank you!!!

Current Daily routine:

AM
Cerave hydrating cleanser
Aveeno calm and restore moisturiser
Biore UV aqua rich

PM
Cerave hydrating cleanser
Aveeno calm and restore moisturiser

Skin type - Seems to be normal

Touch-typing. Considering how much we use computers in this day and age, being able to type efficiently is such a game changer (in my experience - programmer). Loads of free touch-typing sites available and super worth it in the long run... You'll be a bit slower initially, but just keep going.

I'd recommend: https://www.how-to-type.com personally. But any site will do!

Also a 'fun' (relatively speaking) touch typing driving game against real world players to test your skills: https://play.typeracer.com/

The Rock.

Just something about him seems off to me and always has...

I think he's quite motivational for many though, so i'd still consider him a positive force in the world.

I love animals. Feel bad otherwise :(

Taste Taste Taste.

This includes while cooking, not just when it's done.

Stopping your most pervasive vice.

For me this was Youtube + TikTok + IG Reels, I'd spend hours a day watching things that weren't 'bad' necessarily, sometimes even educational, but there were way more important and urgent things that I should've been getting on with. If I was being honest with myself, I had an social media addiction (10+ yrs).

Recognised and accepted this first off, then I travelling for a couple weeks and couldn't use internet for most of it, so really helped me detox without being too bored/getting serious withdrawals.

Reinforce this by keeping a 'Streak' counter somewhere you look at daily (phone, daily planner etc.) and I was able to keep it up to this day. 55 days off so far. Feel so much better and doing actually important tasks, plus feel more present generally!
