When clinically appropriate, an official Spanish valid electronic prescription is issued in under 24 hours as a downloadable PDF that you can present at any pharmacy in Lugo or across the EU.

1. Complete the medical questionnaire: Share your acne history, skin type, prior treatments, and current skincare routine.
2. Upload clinical photos: Provide clear, well-lit photos of the affected areas so the doctor can assess lesion types and grading.
3. Doctor evaluation: An EU-licensed physician reviews your submission asynchronously to ensure topical retinoid therapy is safe for you.
4. Receive your valid electronic prescription: If treatment is deemed appropriate, your official the valid electronic prescription digital prescription PDF is delivered to your secure patient account in under 24 hours.

Who qualifies

Topical retinoid combinations are suitable for adult patients managing mild to moderate facial acne. To qualify for an online prescription, you must meet specific safety parameters:

• Adults aged 18 and older with comedonal or mild-to-moderate inflammatory acne.
• Non-pregnant and non-breastfeeding individuals (adapalene is contraindicated in pregnancy).
• Patients without active eczema, open skin ulcerations, or severe barrier impairment.

Out of scope: Hi-Doctor provides topical treatments only. Severe, nodulocystic, or scarring acne, as well as cases requiring oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or oral antibiotics, are referred to in-person specialist care.

What Differin actually does

Differin contains adapalene, a targeted third-generation topical retinoid that binds to specific retinoic acid receptors to regulate cell turnover and prevent microcomedones from forming. However, Hi-Doctor's doctors do not prescribe adapalene alone; they prescribe adapalene 0.1% paired with benzoyl peroxide 2.5%. The addition of benzoyl peroxide provides broad antimicrobial action against Cutibacterium acnes without triggering bacterial resistance.

Treatment Option	Active Ingredients	Primary Clinical Role	Key Considerations
Epiduo / Acniduo Gel	Adapalene 0.1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5%	Comedolytic + antibacterial	Once nightly; standard first-line for mixed acne.
Skinoren / Finacea Gel	Azelaic Acid 15%	Comedolytic + anti-inflammatory	Twice daily; preferred for darker phototypes & pregnancy.
Duac Gel	Clindamycin 1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 3%/5%	Targeted anti-inflammatory	Once nightly; strictly capped at 12 weeks of use.

When starting an adapalene combination, a retinoid purge (temporary increase in superficial breakouts) commonly occurs during weeks 2 to 6 as pores clear. Meaningful therapeutic results are evaluated at 12 weeks of consistent nightly use.

Side effects and when to stop

Topical retinoids require an acclimatisation period. Mild local irritation can be managed by applying a gentle moisturiser before your treatment.

• Expected, manageable effects: Mild redness, flaking, dryness, and a warm sensation upon application.
• When to stop immediately: Severe swelling of the face or eyelids, blistering, intense burning, or signs of an allergic reaction.

Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

Booking a private dermatology visit in Lugo often involves lengthy waiting times and higher consultation fees. Hi-Doctor provides a streamlined medical pathway:

• Flat 40 € fee: A single transparent payment for dermatology assessment, with no recurring subscription.
• Zero financial risk: If the doctor determines treatment is not clinically safe or appropriate, your 40 € fee is refunded in full.
• Official Spanish the valid electronic prescription standard: The digital prescription carries official verification data and can be presented at any pharmacy across Spain, where the pharmacist validates the QR code, or presented under Directive 2011/24/EU across the EU where a pharmacist reviews the document and may dispense the medication.

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.
