I recently got a scar on my neck.
And I heard that tea tree oil is great for scars so I went out and bought 100% tea tree oil.
I applied the tea tree oil to the scar and within about 6 hours I could see it start to heal rapidly. The label at the back of the bottle said nothing about diluting the oil. It said "Apply to the skin 4 times daily or as often as necessary."
I decided that I was going to try and get it to heal overnight.
So I added tea tree oil on a small cotton pad and covered it with a band aid on the scar.
This morning when I woke up I took it off and now the area on my skin where the cotton pad was is very dark...almost blackish!!!!!
Why is it there and how can I get rid of it!??
Some people said it was because I used too much of it for too long and some also said I just have to leave it so that the tea tree oil dries from my skin.
The question is...will this black patch go away, or what can I use to get rid of it???
Would appreciate any help!!
Regards
