Tired of guessing which acne product to try next?
Upload a few photos with your questionnaire and an EU-licensed doctor grades the type and severity, then decides whether a prescription topical is appropriate. €40 one-off, answer in under 24 hours.
Online consultations are restricted to topical treatments. If you present with severe, nodulocystic, or scarring acne, our doctors will refer you to an in-person clinic. We do not prescribe oral isotretinoin, oral antibiotics, or systemic hormonal therapies online.
What Adapalene actually does
Adapalene is a third-generation topical retinoid that modulates cellular differentiation, normalises follicular keratinisation, and reduces microcomedone formation. On our formulary, doctors prescribe it combined with benzoyl peroxide (adapalene 0.1% + benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel, marketed as Epiduo or Acniduo). This combination attacks acne on two fronts simultaneously: unclogging pores while eradicating Cutibacterium acnes bacteria without inducing antibiotic resistance.
| Treatment Component | Mechanism of Action | Target Lesion Type |
|---|---|---|
| Adapalene 0.1% | Increases cell turnover and normalises desquamation | Comedones, microcomedones, clogged pores |
| Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% | Bactericidal oxygen release without bacterial resistance | Inflammatory papules and pustules |
| Azelaic Acid 15% (Alternative) | Antibacterial and comedolytic; reduces hyperpigmentation | Mild inflammatory acne, sensitive skin phototypes |
Retinoid therapy requires patience. Retinoid purging—a temporary flare-up of inflammatory blemishes—frequently occurs between weeks 2 and 6 as microcomedones surface. Therapeutic improvement is clinically evaluated at 12 weeks of consistent once-nightly application.
Side effects and when to stop
Topical retinoids commonly cause local skin irritation during the first month of application. Understanding what is expected helps you manage your routine safely.
- Mild erythema and dryness: Common during initiation; manage by applying a non-comedogenic moisturiser 20 minutes before or after treatment.
- Peeling and stinging: If moderate peeling occurs, reduce application frequency to every second or third night until tolerance improves.
- Photosensitivity: Retinoids thin the stratum corneum; apply broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen every morning.
- Severe reactions: Discontinue use immediately and seek medical care if you develop severe swelling, hives, burning dermatitis, or facial angioedema.
