TCP (Trichlorophenol) is a mild antiseptic that can be used to help prevent infection in minor cuts, scrapes, and burns. While some people claim that it can help with acne, TCP is not specifically designed for acne treatment and should not be used as a primary acne remedy.
Here's why:
- Acne is not caused by bacteria on the skin, but by trapped oil and dead skin cells in the pores.
- TCP can be drying and irritating to the skin, potentially making acne worse.
- There are more effective and gentler treatments for acne, such as over-the-counter or prescription medications.
If you're struggling with acne, consult a dermatologist for a personalized treatment plan.
