Who qualifies

Topical acne treatments are intended for mild to moderate inflammatory acne, comedonal breakouts, and persistent papules. Our doctors prescribe topical therapies to help clear blockages and reduce bacterial load.

  • Eligible: Adults with mild-to-moderate facial acne, whiteheads, blackheads, or inflammatory pustules seeking topical therapy.
  • Ineligible / Referred to in-person care: Patients with severe nodulocystic acne, deep scarring, or those seeking oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics. These presentations require hands-on clinical monitoring.
  • Pregnancy and phototypes: Retinoids like adapalene are avoided during pregnancy; in such cases, doctors may evaluate alternative options like azelaic acid 15% gel.

Over 50,000 patients have accessed clinical evaluations via Hi-Doctor, supported by a 4.8/5 Trustpilot rating across our medical services.

What Adapalene actually does

Adapalene is a third-generation topical retinoid that modulates cellular differentiation and keratinisation, preventing microcomedones from forming. On our platform, doctors prescribe it combined with benzoyl peroxide (0.1% / 2.5%), which adds a direct antimicrobial mechanism against Cutibacterium acnes without triggering antibiotic resistance.

What treatment actually does
Treatment Option Active Ingredients Application Routine Primary Clinical Target
Adapalene + BPO Gel Adapalene 0.1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% Once nightly Comedones, cellular turnover, and surface bacteria
Azelaic Acid Gel Azelaic Acid 15% Twice daily Comedolysis, post-inflammatory pigmentation, sensitive skin
Clindamycin + BPO Gel Clindamycin 1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 3% or 5% Once nightly (max 12 weeks) Inflammatory pustules with resistance prevention

Retinoid purging commonly occurs between weeks 2 and 6 as cellular turnover accelerates. Meaningful therapeutic change is evaluated at 12 weeks of consistent application.

Side effects and when to stop

Initial skin irritation is common when starting topical retinoid combinations. Most side effects are manageable by adjusting moisturiser use or spacing out applications.

  • Expected mild reactions: Dryness, mild erythema, localized peeling, and transient stinging during the first 2 to 4 weeks.
  • Management: Apply a non-comedogenic moisturiser, use a gentle cleanser, and apply broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, as retinoids increase photosensitivity.
  • When to stop: Discontinue use and seek medical attention if you experience severe contact dermatitis, intense burning, facial swelling, or blistering.
