Because you are...: ...A teenager. Acne is largely driven by hormones which are now running rampant through your system and doing lots of things to your body. You can manage your acne, but you can't stop it. Gentle cleansers and over the counter medicines are enough for some kids; a pediatrician or dermatologist can often help get things under control for those for whom over the counter medicines are not enough.
