2. Upload clear photos: Provide high-resolution photographs of the affected skin areas so the doctor can accurately grade lesion type and severity.
3. Doctor review: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your clinical data and images within 24 hours.

Who qualifies

Online consultations are designed for adult patients dealing with mild to moderate facial or bodily acne. A doctor evaluates whether topical retinoid therapy is safe and clinically suitable based on your medical profile.

• Eligible conditions: Comedonal acne (blackheads and whiteheads), mild-to-moderate inflammatory papules, and pustules.
• Age requirements: Adults aged 18 and older residing in Spain or the EU.
• Out of scope: Hi-Doctor does not prescribe oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane/Accutane), oral antibiotics, or hormonal therapies online. Severe nodular, cystic, or scarring acne requires in-person dermatological evaluation.
• Pregnancy contraindications: Topical retinoids like Adapalene are strictly contraindicated during pregnancy and planning for pregnancy. Patients who are pregnant will be evaluated for safer alternatives like azelaic acid.

What Adapalene actually does

Adapalene is a third-generation topical retinoid that modulates cellular turnover and reduces microcomedone formation inside the hair follicle. It also exerts direct anti-inflammatory activity, decreasing the redness and swelling associated with inflammatory lesions.

Clinical improvement with topical retinoids follows a defined timeline. Retinoid purging—a temporary flare of inflammatory spots—commonly occurs between weeks 2 and 6 as microcomedones surface. True clinical efficacy is evaluated at 12 weeks of continuous use.

Side effects and when to stop

During the first month of therapy, most patients experience some degree of retinisation as the epidermis adapts to accelerated cell turnover.

• Common initial reactions: Mild erythema, skin peeling, dryness, and a transient stinging sensation upon application.
• Management: Apply a non-comedogenic moisturiser before or after application (the buffering method) and use broad-spectrum SPF daily to prevent photosensitivity.
• When to pause treatment: If you experience severe burning, persistent swelling, or spreading eczema, stop application and consult a healthcare professional.

Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

Securing a dermatology appointment in Lugo through public health channels or private practices often involves extensive waiting times and travel. Hi-Doctor offers a streamlined, medically rigorous alternative.

If the reviewing physician determines that topical Adapalene is not clinically safe or appropriate for your condition, you receive a full refund of your 40 € consultation fee.

A doctor reads your photos, not a quiz result.

Complete the online questionnaire and add photos of the affected skin. An EU-licensed doctor reviews both and, if a topical treatment is clinically appropriate, issues a valid electronic prescription in under 24 hours. If no prescription is issued, the €40 fee is refunded in full.
