Pores/texture, no improvement with TCA peels, what's next?

I've been trying to take skincare way more seriously but things seem to not be improving.

I'm having a treatment done to zap off some sebaceous hyperplasia and looking into a little botox around my face but my pores look AWFUL up close recently.

For the last year I've been doing TCA peels and using tret' .25, as well as other over the counter things (salicylic acid 2% for example) but nada, if anything, they seem worse (or I'm just noticing more)

I recently got a script for 1% tret and was told by a derm last year that microneedling would help, but I'm not really into microneedling. I would REALLY like to avoid that. I've been looking into possibly laser treatments but have no idea what's good. The place I'm going to has an Elos laser, would that actually help?

Any suggestions would be super appreciated.
