  1. Fill out the clinical questionnaire: Answer questions regarding your skin symptoms, past treatments, allergies, and current health status.
  2. Upload skin photos: Provide high-resolution photographs of the affected areas so the doctor can evaluate lesion type, severity, and skin tone.
  3. Doctor review within 24 hours: An EU-licensed doctor assesses your case. If the doctor determines that treatment is not clinically appropriate, the 40 EUR consultation fee is refunded in full.
  4. Download your REMPE prescription: If approved, your official Spanish REMPE (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) prescription PDF appears in your secure account inbox and email notification. You can print the PDF or show the digital QR code at your local pharmacy in Teruel, where the pharmacist may dispense your medication.

Who qualifies

Azelaic acid 15% gel (commonly marketed under brand names such as Skinoren or Finacea) is a versatile topical agent suited for mild-to-moderate inflammatory skin conditions. You generally qualify for an online evaluation if you experience:

Editorial still life illustrating Who qualifies
Who qualifies
  • Mild to moderate acne: Patients with comedones (blackheads and whiteheads) and mild inflammatory papules or pustules.
  • Papulopustular rosacea: Individuals experiencing facial redness, flushing, and inflammatory bumps across the cheeks, nose, or forehead.
  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH): Patients with darker skin phototypes prone to dark marks after breakouts, as azelaic acid specifically targets hyperactive melanocytes without bleaching normal skin.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding: Azelaic acid carries a strong safety profile and is often the preferred clinical choice when retinoids are contraindicated.

Out of scope: Hi-Doctor provides topical dermatology treatments only. Oral isotretinoin, oral antibiotics, and severe, nodulocystic, or deeply scarring acne require close physical monitoring and blood tests. These conditions are not treated online and are referred to in-person care.

What Azelaic-acid actually does

Azelaic acid is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid with a dual mechanism of action. First, it functions as a comedolytic agent, normalising keratinisation inside the pore lining to prevent clogs. Second, it exerts antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting the protein synthesis of Cutibacterium acnes, reducing inflammatory lesions without inducing bacterial resistance.

Treatment OptionPrimary MechanismApplication FrequencyTypical Review Timeline
Azelaic acid 15% gelComedolytic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, inhibits tyrosinaseTwice dailyEvaluate progress at 12 weeks
Adapalene 0.1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5%Retinoid cell turnover + rapid antibacterial oxidationOnce nightlyPurging weeks 2–6; review at 12 weeks
Clindamycin 1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 5%Topical antibiotic + resistance-preventing antibacterialOnce nightlyCapped at 12 weeks maximum

Unlike retinoids, azelaic acid does not cause photosensitivity, making it easier to manage year-round. However, visible skin renewal takes time. While minor skin texture improvements may appear within 4 to 6 weeks, meaningful clinical changes are judged at 12 weeks of continuous use.

Side effects and when to stop

Azelaic acid 15% gel is generally well tolerated, but transient local reactions can occur during the first few weeks of application as your skin barrier adapts:

  • Expected initial effects: Mild stinging, tingling, slight burning, or minor dryness immediately following application. These sensations typically subside within 15 to 30 minutes and lessen over 2 to 4 weeks of consistent use.
  • Management: Applying a non-comedogenic moisturiser before or after application can reduce local irritation.
  • When to stop: Discontinue use and contact your doctor if you experience severe erythema, persistent peeling, swelling, hives, or signs of an allergic contact dermatitis.
