Who qualifies

Eligibility for an online consultation depends on your clinical presentation and medical background. Hi-Doctor's dermatology pathway provides topical therapy for mild-to-moderate acne and rosacea.

Hi-Doctor exclusively prescribes topical dermatological treatments. Severe, nodular, cystic, or scarring conditions are outside the scope of telemedicine and must be evaluated in person by a specialist.

What Azelaic-acid actually does

Azelaic acid 15% gel (commonly marketed under brand names such as Skinoren or Finacea) is a dicarboxylic acid that targets acne and rosacea through multiple complementary mechanisms. It provides comedolytic activity by normalising epidermal keratinisation, helping prevent follicular plugs from forming.

Simultaneously, it exerts bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects against Cutibacterium acnes without triggering microbial resistance. Azelaic acid is also an effective option for darker skin phototypes and post-inflammatory erythema because it selectively inhibits hyperactive melanocytes through tyrosinase inhibition, reducing the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Clinical trials show meaningful reduction in inflammatory lesions by week 12 of twice-daily topical application of Azelaic acid 15% gel.

Side effects and when to stop

Topical Azelaic acid is generally well tolerated, but mild local cutaneous reactions can occur during the initial weeks of use. Understanding expected adjustments versus adverse events ensures safe application.

• Common early reactions: Transient stinging, burning, itching, or mild dryness at the application site, typically diminishing after 2 to 4 weeks.
• How to manage: Apply to clean, fully dry skin, and consider spacing applications to once daily before increasing to twice daily if irritation occurs.
• When to stop: Discontinue use and seek urgent medical evaluation if you develop severe blistering, swelling of the face or eyelids, hives, or signs of an acute allergic reaction.

Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

In Ceuta, securing a specialist dermatology appointment through the public health service or finding an available private clinic slot often involves extended waiting periods. Hi-Doctor provides asynchronous clinical evaluations that fit your schedule without physical waiting rooms.

Prescriptions issued through Hi-Doctor comply with Spain's official the valid electronic prescription (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) private digital prescription standard and the cross-border requirements of Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU. Under Directive 2011/24/EU, the prescription can be presented at any EU pharmacy, where the pharmacist reviews it and may dispense a locally marketed equivalent with the same active ingredient. Pharmacists retain the professional discretion to refuse dispensing.

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.
