When do boys get acne? Will it grow taller after getting acne?

Boys begin to get acne around 14, and 12- 13 if they are precocious. At the peak, they started to get acne at 18- 19. But if you pay attention to diet and work regularly, acne can hardly grow.

Acne is a skin disease caused by the blockage and inflammation of hair follicles and sebaceous glands, which is caused by the increase of androgen, sebaceous glands and sebum secretion.

In terms of medical height, men generally stop growing at the age of 18- 19. It has little to do with acne, but mainly with bone development, growth and growth hormone level.

Height is mainly related to bones. There is epiphysis at both ends of the bone. Epiphysis is the starting point of bone growth. After the height of adolescent men suddenly increased, the epiphysis began to close and ossify. Around the age of 20, it will be completely closed, so it will not grow tall.

So generally speaking, acne does not affect the increase.
