Why acne is where it is.

[wayneboard1]

We all know acne is a common side effect of using gear. What I don't know is why the acne presents itself in the typical areas it does such as back, shoulders, etc. Does anyone know why these locations seem to be where most acne (at least mine) appears and not on the face or elsewhere at all or as much?

K for helpful replies.

Androgen receptors maybe? I think the upper chest and delts have more receptors.

One of the reasons is because you sweat more in those places. Which in turn releases more oil from your skin. Which can clog pores etc... Watch next time your working out. When I train sweat rolls off my face, shoulders, chest and lower back. Have you had your forearms breakout? lol

Nose

Even on high androgenics, I do not get a breakout anywhere, except for my nose........ there is just one single dot that comes up on the tip of my nose...... my friends call it rudolf the roid deer.
