Tea tree oil treats mild acne
The efficacy of 5% topical tea tree oil gel in mild to moderate acne vulgaris: a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled study.
Effective for mild acne treatment
We conducted a study to see how well 5% tea tree oil gel helps with mild to moderate acne. In a randomized double-blind trial, 60 patients were divided into two groups: one used the tea tree oil gel and the other a placebo.
Over 45 days, we tracked their acne improvement by counting lesions and assessing severity. The results showed that tea tree oil was significantly more effective than the placebo, improving acne lesions and severity index scores significantly while side effects were minimal and comparable for both groups.

Tea tree oil reduces acne lesions
Tea tree oil gel for mild to moderate acne; a 12 week uncontrolled, open-label phase II pilot study.
Study reflects acne treatment potential.
We investigated the effectiveness of tea tree oil gel and face wash in treating mild to moderate acne over 12 weeks. Participants used the tea tree oil products twice daily and were evaluated periodically.
We found a significant reduction in acne lesions, with the average count decreasing from 23.7 to 10.7 by the end of the study. Most participants reported good tolerability, only experiencing minor side effects like dryness.
Overall, our findings suggest that tea tree oil can effectively help improve acne conditions while being well-tolerated by users.

Fibrous clay enhances tea tree oil
Fibrous palygorskite clays as versatile nanocarriers for skin delivery of tea tree oils in efficient acne therapy.
Highly relevant topical remedies
We investigated the use of fibrous palygorskite clay as a delivery system for tea tree oil (TTO) to treat acne effectively. The TTO-Pal composite demonstrated impressive loading and sustained release of key antimicrobial ingredients. In our study, we found that the TTO-Pal system effectively reduces acne-causing bacteria while maintaining the skin’s beneficial flora.
Additionally, it showed remarkable results in decreasing inflamed acne lesions and balancing skin oil production. This approach not only offers a novel way to administer tea tree oil but also suggests significant potential for improving acne therapies.

Great for acne
I purchased this Tea Tree Oil for acne after hearing it works better than many medications. Initially taken aback by the scent, I used it nightly after cleansing my face. I've used it exclusively for six months and it's been incredibly effective. Additionally, I recommend a specific tea tree oil-based product for facial application. I've noticed improvements in my skin's appearance and pore size. This product is a fantastic treatment for acne overall.

Reduces cystic acne
After switching birth control, I experienced painful cystic acne. I decided to try this product and noticed a difference within a couple of days. I apply it with clean fingers focusing on problem areas. It dries out my pores and helps bring sebum to the surface, significantly reducing my acne by approximately 50% after three weeks. However, consistency is crucial; if I skip a day, the redness returns. I absolutely recommend it for those with hormonal acne.

Tea tree oil facilitates acne treatment
Hydrogel composite containing azelaic acid and tea tree essential oil as a therapeutic strategy for Propionibacterium and testosterone-induced acne.
Highly relevant acne treatment study
In our research examining acne treatments, we focused on a new hydrogel combining tea tree oil and azelaic acid. This innovative treatment demonstrated superior skin absorption and antibacterial properties compared to existing options.
When tested on acne-causing bacteria, our hydrogel showed a significant increase in effectiveness, resulting in a remarkable reduction in acne lesions in a rat model. These findings suggest that this combination can be a safer and more effective topical treatment for acne vulgaris.

Tea tree oil improves acne treatment
A topical gel of tea tree oil nanoemulsion containing adapalene versus adapalene marketed gel in patients with acne vulgaris: a randomized clinical trial.
Study score indicates high relevance
We explored the effectiveness of a tea tree oil nanoemulsion gel combined with adapalene for acne treatment, comparing it to a standard marketed adapalene gel. Our study involved 100 patients using either product daily for 12 weeks.
Results showed that the tea tree oil gel significantly reduced total, inflammatory, and non-inflammatory acne lesions more effectively than the standard gel. While dryness was more common in the tea tree oil group, overall safety profiles remained similar.
This suggests that tea tree oil may enhance acne treatment alongside adapalene.

Tea tree oil shows acne promise
The Therapeutic Potential of Essential Oils in Managing Inflammatory Skin Conditions: A Scoping Review.
Low relevance due to study scope
We explored how essential oils, especially tea tree oil, might help with inflammatory skin conditions like acne. This review analyzed 29 studies on essential oils, revealing that tea tree oil gel was effective for acne while being gentler than traditional treatments.
Although other oils showed promise, more detailed research is needed to confirm their benefits meaningfully. The need for rigorous studies that ensure product quality was highlighted to better understand essential oils' role in skin care.

Effective for severe acne
Best solution for severe acne! Mixing 1-2 drops of tea tree oil with my usual facial cream produces an amazing disinfecting and soothing effect. I recommend it for oily skin, especially in summer. A mixture of aloe gel and tea tree oil works exceptionally well.
