Is it correct to say "A lot of pimples appeared on my face because of the keto diet"?
 
It's factually dubious.* It would be grammatically correct if it ended with correct punctuation.

*(Look this word up.)
 
It's not wrong (punctuation aside), but it's a bit wordy. I think sometime like "The keto diet gave me a lot of pimples*" is more natural.


You can omit 'on my face'. We normally assume they're on your face, unless otherwise specified.

*you might also hear 'zits' instead of 'pimples'.
 
And in BrE, they're "spots".
