My acne scars - will they ever heal?

I've been a skin picker for years. More recently now than ever, I've been seeing the damage of it and have decided to stop. It's left behind some scars, and they have been making me extremely self-conscious. I never want to take a picture or look in the mirror because all I see are the scars. I was just hoping to get some opinions on if they're too deep or old to get rid of, or if there may be something I can do I minimize their appearance. I've included 2 pictures of my forehead, one with flash and one without. Any advice would be much appreciated!! Thanks!

It's hard for me to see any scars in those pics. Do you mean the red areas? They are not scars but PIE. Please checkout my faq below and goto the skin section and then find the PIE / PIH topic for treatments.

those are small icepicks and should shrink with few microneedling sessions
