I'm worried about acne and pigmentation every time I look in the mirror.

This morning, I finished washing my face and stared in the mirror for a long time. It seemed like even when I had breakouts, they would quickly subside and the marks would disappear, but now, even after time passes, many of them remain. Especially, the acne pigmentation around my chin and cheeks weighs heavily on my mind. Things that used to be easily covered with just a light layer of makeup now don't completely disappear, even with a layer of concealer, and I feel discouraged before going out. I've been buying expensive cosmetics and applying them consistently, but the acne pigmentation marks are much more stubborn than I expected. It's time to seriously consider how to manage them fundamentally, rather than simply covering them up. It's a sad feeling every time I realize my skin isn't as regenerative as it used to be. I desperately want to return to my smooth, clear skin, but the reality is, even a single acne pigmentation is a struggle. How do you all address these concerns? If you have any products you use or a routine that has proven particularly effective, please share them with us.
