Why Do I keep Getting Spots ? Help !?

Question

Okay I'm 16 year old and just left school and everything at the moment is good apart form the fact i keep on getting spots. My lifestyle is pretty normal, i wash 2/3 times a day (simple face wash) and moisturize a couple of times a week (Simple Moisturizer). I drink lots and lots of water and try to not eat to much junk food. Ive stopped using gel/wax so my face is a lot less greasier and eat more fruits/vegetable than i used too. My skin sometimes gets better but like once every 10 days it will become worse for no reason and I'm back where i started again. Also another thing, my spots are all gathered around my cheeks of my face which is really annoying because its like the main part of your face :( . Does anybody have any tips on what I should do to help get rid of my spots and stop them from appearing. Your help would be appreciated, Thanks.

Spots?  You mean freckles?  A very common place for freckles to appear is on your cheeks.  They get darker and more numerous from exposure to the sun.  Freckles are harmless and form because you have a genetic predisposition to them.  Freckles are simply tan spots that are a bit darker than the surrounding skin.  I think freckles on a girl's cheeks is very cute.  There are lots of girls who feel the same way about them on a guy's face.

If you are just now starting to get freckles, chances are you'll be getting a lot more across your nose, cheeks and forehead.  There isn't anything you can do about them except to learn to love them as part of who you are.  Most people like freckles.
