What are the ways to improve face skin after quitting smoking?

I’ll be turning 30 at the end of the year and I’ve quit smoking for 4 months now (yaaah!). Btw, I was a light on off smoker for about 7 years, max 10 and sometimes none per day. Ever since I quit, I have been eating healthy (a lot of detox food), drinking lots of water, exercising regularly and sleeping well. However, my skin heals pretty slowly after a zit or 2, blemish doesn’t go away easily and it doesn’t seem to have that glow like before. Judging from the signs, I gather that the blood circulation to my face isn’t all that good. I haven’t thoroughly explored facial products option but I do have practise a basic regime, like exfoliating, face-washing, toning moisturising. At this point, I’m desperate and I welcome ANY helpful hints. Thanks!
