Concerns about skin regeneration cream

Lately, I've been constantly debating whether or not to use a skin regeneration cream. My skin feels thinner than before, and small blemishes and fine lines aren't fading, so I keep finding myself drawn to regeneration products. However, there are so many types and the ingredients are so complex that I don't know what criteria to use when choosing one. I'm curious if ingredients like Centella Asiatica and Panthenol, which are said to aid in soothing and recovery, actually have any effect in regeneration creams, and I'm also confused about whether expensive products are truly different. I'm also unsure whether it's okay to apply regeneration cream every day or if I should only use it after laser treatments or exfoliation, so I can't bring myself to buy one right away. I'm also worried that using the wrong product might clog my pores or cause breakouts. I really want to find a regeneration cream that restores my skin barrier and makes it healthy, but there is so much information that it's hard to make a choice.
