More common in humans because of the exposed skin, some similar things exist in other species.
Ponies don't have acne.

Acne is not common in Freemopia.
Acne in Freemopia is more common on visitors and new immigrants that came from nations where acne is common.
About less than 5% of people aged 13-17 have acne.
About less than 5% of people aged 18-40 have acne.
About 5%+ of people over 13 never had acne. (acne also including 1 small pimple)

Freemopia is a rain forest, temp stays 70-80degrees. The environment is mostly clean. Most Freemopians pick fresh food from their gardens year round and eat mostly healthy. Many Freemopians collect and purify rain water as their main source of drinking and bathing water. Many Freemopians enjoy exercising outdoors.
The government funds sanitation education in the form of tv, radio, and internet announcements, and pamphlets mailed to all inhabitants who don't opt out.
Not touching your face with hands that are not just washed. Not putting your face in contact with anything that might be unsanitary. Washing hands after touching public items and before touching food. Keeping bedding clean. Showering after exercise. Cleaning mouth after eating...
Many Freemopians keep their nails short to make it easier to keep clean.
Most Freemopians are healthy and sanitary.

Acne is most common in teenagers, but most teenagers don't get much acne, and when they do, they usually take care of it. Usually rose water helps.

Most teenagers in Adab have acne - it's something to expect by every Adabian in adolescence. Usually, they just don't care much about acne and go on with life as if nothing has happened.

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

Yeah, in Jack-O-Land, acne's pretty common, but not as common as its neighbors, because of the low pollution.
Let's say 50% of teens have acne.

It's not as common as in other countries. The highest prevalence is found in 18-year-olds (46.8%). It's also noticeably more common in males than females.

Our immune systems prevent bacteria and dirt from causing acne. Plus our skin is incapable of getting it, rendering us beautiful and free of zits.

Acne is a large problem for skin and vital organs everywhere in the Landfill. These large spiraling growths can become quite obtrusive to organisms operating in fewer than five dimensions while their impressive bio-electric emissions can ignite combustible materials and necrotize nearby flesh.

The Bureau of Health reports that as of the last health census (2013), approximately 65% of all adolescents between the ages of 13 and 19 in Valkyrine were suffering from acne of any sort. 90% of cases were severe enough to warrant the recommendation of treatment options by a physician, however fewer than 20% actually required Rx medication. There are no statistically significant links between acne prevalence and geographic location within Valkyrine.

The Bureau of Health advises that any adolescent with acne that causes any issues with their physical or mental wellbeing should see a healthcare professional for treatment.
