Tea tree oil and Acne
Tea tree oil appears to be a credible alternative remedy for blemishes, including pimples, blackheads and whiteheads. The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) lists tea tree oil as a natural acne treatment. Tea tree oil treatment might be especially helpful for acne patients with sensitive skin. Despite the AAD’s endorsement, the National Institutes of Health argues that further human studies are needed to confirm the touted benefits of tea tree oil for acne.
