Well i'm 34 and still get a zit once in awhile,so it will but theres still that zit that comes once in awhile so it'll slow but it wont stop completly.

I dont think it will get better as u get old,I mean u are 24
and probably acnes u have are adult acnes or hormonal ones
I'm 20 and I had mild acnes since I was 18,and recently i satarted to get rid of them
all u should do is to take care of your skin, try using a cleanser twice a day,morning and night i recomend clean and clear deep clean wash, if u have oily skin try to avoid moisturizers,try not to sleep in your make up,this is the first step
after that,u should drink about 1.5 l water a day,take omega 6 and omega 3 because they are anti inflamatory and reduce the inflamation in your body,one of the main causes of acne,
and if u get hormonal acnes before your periods try to take b6

after all that if u have time,u can try some homemade masks
ex. after I wash my face with my fav. cleanserand I dip a cotton ball in milk and massage my face with it,it works... really.

I know it may sound like a lot of work,but try to make it an everyday routine

hope it gets better soon

pimples are caused by a number of different reasons, pimples are not just a teenage problem
