Who qualifies
Online acne consultations are designed for adults dealing with mild to moderate inflammatory or comedonal acne on the face, chest, or back. You must be at least 18 years old and able to provide accurate medical information alongside high-quality photos.
Topical retinoid treatments containing adapalene are contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Patients presenting with severe nodulocystic acne, deep sinus tracts, or widespread scarring are out of scope for online management. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or oral antibiotics online; these cases require comprehensive physical examination, blood work monitoring, and in-person specialist oversight.
What Differin actually does
Differin contains adapalene 0.1%, a third-generation synthetic retinoid. Adapalene binds specifically to nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RAR-beta and RAR-gamma), normalizing follicular epithelial cell turnover and preventing the microcomedone formation that triggers acne breakouts.
While Differin provides adapalene monotherapy, Hi-Doctor’s formulary focuses on combining adapalene 0.1% with benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (marketed as Epiduo or Acniduo). Benzoyl peroxide introduces a potent bactericidal mechanism that rapidly reduces Cutibacterium acnes populations via oxidative action without generating bacterial resistance.
| Treatment | Active Ingredients | Primary Mechanism | Typical Regimen |
|---|---|---|---|
| Differin (Monotherapy) | Adapalene 0.1% | Comedolytic, anti-inflammatory | Once nightly |
| Adapalene + Benzoyl Peroxide | Adapalene 0.1% + BPO 2.5% | Comedolytic + rapid bactericidal action | Once nightly |
| Azelaic Acid (Skinoren/Finacea) | Azelaic Acid 15% | Antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, reduces post-inflammatory pigment | Twice daily |
| Duac Gel | Clindamycin 1% + BPO 3%/5% | Topical antibiotic + resistance prevention | Once nightly (max 12 weeks) |
Acne management requires patience. During weeks 2 to 6, patients often experience temporary retinoid purging as latent microcomedones surface. True clinical improvement and reduction of inflammatory papules are assessed at the 12-week mark.
Side effects and when to stop
Local cutaneous irritation is frequent during the initial weeks of topical retinoid therapy. Expected side effects include mild erythema, localized scaling, dryness, and a transient stinging sensation.
Under Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU, cross-border electronic prescriptions require standardized prescriber and product identification to allow verification across Member States.
To reduce irritation, apply a gentle moisturizer before or after the medication, and always apply broad-spectrum sunscreen every morning. Discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare provider if you experience severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, blistering, or intense burning.
Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

Every prescription uses Spain's official the valid electronic prescription private digital prescription framework. The resulting PDF document can be presented at any EU pharmacy, where the pharmacist reviews it and may dispense the medication or an equivalent product with the same active ingredients. Pharmacists retain the professional discretion to refuse dispensing in accordance with national regulations.
A doctor reads your photos, not a quiz result.
