I just turned 15 and I think I just started puberty because I'm only 5"6' and still look really young for my age, one of the most childish in my grade. I used to have a good amount of acne, which really made my self confidence drop. But I went to the doctor and got some medicine, and now it's 90% gone.

Right as that stress left me, another problem was brought to my attention. My face is sorta..fat and roundish. Now if I was a fat person this might bother me, but I am clinically underweight. My question is, does the shape and/or the fat on your face go away/change as you go through puberty??

(if a picture would help answer I can provide one)

I think you are just going through puberty. I had some fat on my face when I was 13, 14ish but it went away when I reached my late teens : )

Look at your parents' faces. That may tell you if this is just the way your face is, or if you've just got baby fat that will eventually go away.

Most people's faces get more angular as they grow up. Puberty is just an awkward time.

Honestly, though, you're probably just hypercritical of yourself.
