Spots can start at any age but are very common amongst teenagers and 95% of young people between 11-30 can be affected to some degree. In girls they often occur around 14-17 years old and can often become worse around the time of your period. In boys often occur around 16-19 years old. Often they can run in families-so if both parents had them the chances are that you will too. There is no evidence to suggest that poor diet, poor hygiene or sexual activity increase the chances of getting teenage spots. Often you can get spots on the chest and back areas it does not just affect the face
