Will microneedling improve my skin texture and minimize the appearance of acne scars? Should I consider other options? (photo)

Hi - I’ve had micro needling done in the past (December 2021 and March 2022) in an attempt to improve m skin texture. I believe these are acne scars/texture from picking at my face. Would micro needling be the best procedure to correct this? Or would a different skincare procedure be more beneficial?
