May reduce acne

Some studies show that black seed oil may reduce acne. Researchers have suggested this may be due to its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects. According to some studies, black seed oil may be helpful for treating skin issues including acne. This could be because black seed oil has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects.

In one review paper, persons who used a lotion produced with black seed oil on an acne-prone patch of skin had a substantial reduction in acne lesions after two months. Similar to this, participants in one trial of 60 individuals were instructed to apply a topical gel containing black seed oil on their skin twice daily for 60 days. When compared to a control group, those who had this therapy saw a 78 percent decrease in the severity of their acne as well as a notable increase in the number of lesions.
