When clinically appropriate, a digital REMPE prescription is issued in under 24 hours.

Who qualifies

Hi-Doctor provides consultations for mild to moderate facial and trunk acne. To qualify, you must be an adult residing in Spain or another EU member state who can submit clear skin photos.

Key takeaways:

• Eligible cases: Mild to moderate comedonal and inflammatory acne (papules, pustules, blackheads).
• Required step: Clear photo upload of the breakout area is mandatory for clinical grading.
• Out-of-scope conditions: Severe nodulocystic acne, deep conglobate lesions, and active scarring cannot be managed online and require an in-person specialist referral.
• Topical scope: All acne treatments prescribed via Hi-Doctor are topical formulations. Oral antibiotics and oral isotretinoin are never prescribed online.

What Adapalene actually does

Adapalene is a third-generation synthetic retinoid that binds to specific retinoic acid nuclear receptors. It normalises follicular epithelial cell turnover, prevents microcomedone formation, and exerts an anti-inflammatory effect.

For acne treatment, Hi-Doctor doctors evaluate patients for adapalene 0.1% + benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel (marketed as Epiduo or Acniduo). Combining adapalene with benzoyl peroxide provides dual action: it unplugs pores while rapidly reducing Cutibacterium acnes bacteria without driving antibiotic resistance.

Other topical options evaluated by Hi-Doctor doctors include azelaic acid 15% gel (Skinoren) and clindamycin 1% + benzoyl peroxide 3%/5% gel (Duac, capped at a 12-week course). With any topical retinoid combination, an initial acne purging phase is common between weeks 2 and 6. Meaningful clinical improvement is judged at 12 weeks of consistent once-nightly application.

Side effects and when to stop

Topical retinoid combinations commonly cause mild, localised skin reactions during the initial weeks of treatment. Managing your skin barrier helps minimise these effects.

• Common reactions: Mild erythema, peeling, stinging, dryness, and increased photosensitivity. Apply a non-comedogenic moisturiser and broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen daily.
• Application guidance: Apply a thin pea-sized layer at night to clean, completely dry skin. If irritation occurs, reduce frequency to alternate nights.
• When to discontinue: Stop use and contact a healthcare professional if you experience severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, or an intense burning sensation that does not subside.
