Yes, in many ways. It opens pores and allows oils to escape that would cause acne usually. The Romans used saunas for this reason

Great. Is sweating too much a thing? In the sense that it could have a detrimental effect on your skin. Or is there no such thing?

Nah sweating is terrible. Our ancestors didn't sweat as it depleted electrolytes.

Yes, it is known as hyperhidrosis. However, this is due to underlying causes unrelated to exercise and temperature so it may not be what you're asking for.
