Orange peel skin - should I get laser or leave my skin alone? Already tried Accutane, tazorac, peels, dermaroller. (Photo)

I used retin a/Tazorac on nose/cheeks for 6 years. I've always had bad blackheads. Orange peel texture appeared 1 year ago. Also had blackheads literally on every pore on body. Took accutane which eliminated all blackheads, but after 2 months I noticed large pores all over face (not just areas with blackheads) so I stopped. Now I am extremely depressed. I am 22 but my parents have better skin than me. How can I repair this damage without making it worse? I am depressed and need help!
