Eli5 Why do people who have acne on their face not have it everywhere else?

If you’re prone to acne why is it only on your face? Not your scalp, legs, arms. My eczema shows up everywhere but I’ve only heard of face acne and back acne.

You definitely do get acne on your legs, back, privates, etc. The face is more prone to sweating and has more open air exposure than other parts.
