Can tree tea oil clean my acne?

Maybe: Evidence is anecdotal; it's a moderate estrogen and has given boys who use it breasts. Benzoyl peroxide is a nastier but quite effective over-the-counter product. If you can't clear your acne with these, please get with your physician. There are a variety of other remedies available.

Possibly : Tea tree oil does have some antiseptic properties and work for some people as a spot treatment for acne. However, it can also cause a contact dermatitis or rash in some people so use with caution.
