Does Retin-A help pitted scarring? (Photo)

Just curious - if I continue using tretinoin, will my pitted scarring eventually get better? I get microneedling once a month @ 1.5mm, use retin-a 0.025% every M, W, Th, F and Sunday and use 0.01% as a mask for 30 min short-contact therapy every Tues and Sat. I know I can get better results with TCA, lasers etc. ( and I do get them a few times a year) but just curious to know if my skin care routine does anything at all or if it's just for mitigation of fine lines. Thanks!
