No...Pimples at this age could be due to hormonal variation and its quite common ,wash your face twice a day with face wash...avoid dust and pollution, don't puncture pimples as it turns black due to scarring, let it fade on its own , don't apply steroids without prescription...The most appropriate treatment is based on the grade and severity of the acne...The following medications are used in the treatment... Retinoid-like agents ,Antibiotics,Selectivealdosterone antagonist,Acne products,
When a topical or systemic antibiotic is used, it should be used in conjunction with benzoyl peroxide or topical retinoid to reduce the emergence of resistance...avoid junk foods,carbohydrates like rice etc,avoid oily foods...add proteins and fibre rich foods to your diet with green tea,green leafy vegetables, fruits... Many procedural treatment options are there...consult dermatologist they will do the needful

Sperm contains an anti-oxidant called spermine that is thought to diminish wrinkles, smooth the skin, and help with acne, so it didn't cause the acne breakout on your skin. The acne problem is likely to have occurred due to the hormonal imbalance and oily skin. These steps may help:
- Avoid greasy,oily, deep fried, junk food items, also avoid alot of sweets and items such as ghee. Have a low glycemic load diet.
- Wash your face regularly with a Ph balanced face wash
- Wipe your face with a clean cloth when oil accumulates.
- Avoid touching your face regularly. Wash your hands properly before touching the face.
- Take a zinc supplementation tablet which has shown to help with acne
- Consumption of omega-3 fatty acids which are present in fish has shown to help
- Reduce stress(yoga,meditate, sleep, tai chi)
- Exercise regularly(30-45mins per day)
If the problem persists or worsens visit the dermatologist at the earliest.
