Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Masturbation has no relation with acne.
Acne is a common problem in adolscent males
Treatment requires
Use of a salicylic acid or glycolic acid or benzoyl peroxide based face wash
Application of adapalenr clindamycin gel over acne lesions
Application of kojic acid or azelaic acid based creams over marks.

Also consult a dermatologist for your skin analysis so that a proper personalised Treatment can be offered.
Take care
