[Anti-Aging] Skin makes me look 10 years older than my actual age, feeling hopeless I don’t know how to fix it

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I’ve been lurking on this sub for awhile now but never felt like posting until now. I’ve had skin issues for about 8 years now and up until 2-3 years ago I really started trying to understand my skin care needs. I recently went to a dermatologist over the summer to help me with my super super congested skin. That is currently my biggest issue as it’s persistent for about 3 years now. I occasionally get whiteheads and under the skin bumps on my chin. I have super textured skin, literally no part of my face looks smooth :/ I also lots of dark spots/red spots and hyperpigmentation. These are all issues I’m actively working on. I’m going to the dermatologist next week for a checkup and I suppose I could bring these issues up with him.But none of those reasons are why I am posting now. Another major skin issue I have is that my skin looks old. I don’t know exactly how to describe it but I’ve felt like I have old looking skin for awhile now. I have horrible hollows under my eyes and nasolabial lines. I’m not sure why they are so prominent and I’ve tried to get rid of them. I don’t know if these issues are behind skincare but I want my skin to look my age. I recently posted to a plastic surgery sub asking how old I look, everyone agreed I do not look my age. I look between 26-28 and even like I’m in my 30s. I’m honestly so heartbroken and worried about this. If I look like I’m 30 when I’m only 19 what will the future hold for my skin. I’m beyond terrified but also devastated because I don’t understand why. I take care of skin, I take care of my body. I drink about 2 liters of water a day, I do not smoke, I drink maybe once a week and I wear spf everyday. I know a lot of people my age who don’t do any of this, and they smoke and they drink multiple times a week but they have baby soft perfect skin. I don’t know what to do, I don’t want to look so much older at such a young age and look even worse when I really am that old. So I’m just looking for advice, products, routines, supplements anything that can help me tackle this.This is my current skincare routine.AM • wash face with PCA skin creamy cleanser • the ordinary natural moisturizing factors • Shiseido senka aging care UV sunscreen SPF50PM • wash face with PCA skin creamy cleanser • wait 5 minutes and apply adapalene 0.3 gel (as prescribed by dermatologist) • The ordinary niacinamide and zinc • wait for about 3 minutes and apply TO squalane oil • TO natural moisturizing factorsI’m mostly looking for advice on how to make my skin look younger,tighter so the pics only show those issues. The first picture is the picture where I apparently look like I’m 30. The others are different lightings/anglespics
