Hey, welcome to the Blender Artists community!

Did you try to enable Auto Smooth in Normals settings?

Try to add a “Smooth” modifier. It helped me. I tried to make a similiar model like yours

Seems to me like your model has corrupt retopology. You could re-create it, or try to make a new one by using different mesh object, for an example, the cylinder.

IDK if i this this correctly but you geometry seems to have different distances between the polys… Does yoy sideview show a “smooth” circular curve… if not than subdiv does not help… maybe use some smooth modifier ??
