Nerve Plant Terrarium - Can I Regrow Bottom?

Hi everyone! I’ve had this nerve plant for ~4 years now. It fit in my palm when I got it and I’ve grown it thru multiple terrariums into its final resting place - this huge Walmart terrarium that it will never be able to move out of bc I’d have to smash the whole thing to get it out lol. I watered it plenty thru its growing stages but since planting it in this terrarium and putting the cork on the humidity and sunlight have done the rest of the work to keep it the appropriate climate in there.

It was originally super full at the bottom but I had to move into an apartment for the past two years that it never got enough light in, hence it dropping its bottom leaves. A couple of months ago I moved into a new place with the perfect lighting again and it has since completely regrown at the top and seems to be flourishing again!

I was wondering if there’s anything I could do to help with the bare bottom of the plant, or if that’s just going to be barren from now on because of the time spent in the dark? I can tell there has been a little regrowth down there but I’d love to get it back to its bushy, full self if possible!! Should I just leave it or is there something I can do to bring back the bottom growth?
