It might, but for the same reason you're allergic to Aloe vera, you may also be allergic to comfort plant. The chemical components they share that provide relief to some may cause the allergic reaction in you. However, I am a botanist, and therefore, can't give you any medical advice. I highly recommend talking to your doctor about comfort plant or, more specifically, Plectranthus amboinicus.
