Findings
Aloe vera has solid evidence for anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and wound-healing properties, which backs up its traditional use for burns, cuts, and eczema. However, most research is still happening in labs (in vitro and animal studies)—there are very few human clinical trials, so we can't yet confirm how well it actually works on real skin.
