Hello,
I can understand your concern for acne in your son. It is quite common to find acne in teenage persons. Your son is now 13 years of age so it is quite obvious that he would get more pimples with increase in age.
In my patients I suggest to apply a gel containing clindamycin 1 % or benzoyl perxide 2.5 % gel over the affected areas. I suggest you to meet a dermatologist to get further guidance. A course of antibiotics might be required for earliest relief.
All the best.
