Acne, high BMI and insulin resistance are correlated by way of hyperandrogenism (a form of excess of sexual hormones). If you go on google scholar and type "acne bmi correlation" you will see the sources for this.

do note that lean hyperandrogenism is also possible. I am an unlucky sufferer. Always underweight yet bad acne.
