How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

The entire consultation is completed online through an asynchronous medical questionnaire designed by clinical specialists.

1. Complete the questionnaire: Answer questions about your acne history, current routine, and skin type. Upload clear photos of the affected areas so the doctor can grade lesion severity.
2. Doctor clinical assessment: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your medical history, symptoms, and uploaded photographs.
3. Prescription issuance: When treatment is clinically appropriate, the doctor issues a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours. You receive a downloadable PDF in your secure account inbox and an email notification.
4. Present at the pharmacy: Print the PDF or show the QR code on your mobile device at any community pharmacy in Almería or across Spain. Under Directive 2011/24/EU, you can also present the PDF at pharmacies in other EU member states, where the pharmacist reviews it and may dispense the medication.

Who qualifies

Epiduo is prescribed for the topical treatment of acne vulgaris when both comedones (blackheads and whiteheads) and inflammatory lesions (papules and pustules) are present. Our doctors evaluate each case individually to confirm eligibility.

Condition / Skin Profile	Eligibility Status	Clinical Approach
Mild to moderate comedonal & inflammatory acne	Eligible	Epiduo (adapalene 0.1% + benzoyl peroxide 2.5%) once nightly.
Inflammatory acne requiring short-term intervention	Eligible	Alternative topicals like clindamycin 1% + benzoyl peroxide (max 12 weeks).
Pregnancy or high hyperpigmentation risk	Alternative indicated	Azelaic acid 15% gel is preferred; retinoids are contraindicated in pregnancy.
Severe nodulocystic or scarring acne	Out of scope	Referred to in-person specialist for systemic therapies.

Hi-Doctor provides topical acne treatments only. Oral isotretinoin, oral antibiotics, and systemic hormonal therapies fall outside our online clinical scope and require an in-person dermatology visit.

What Epiduo actually does

Epiduo combines two active ingredients that work through complementary pathways without promoting antibiotic resistance:

• Adapalene 0.1%: A third-generation topical retinoid that normalises skin cell turnover, unblocks pores, and prevents new microcomedones from forming.
• Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5%: A potent antimicrobial agent that reduces Cutibacterium acnes bacteria on the skin surface and provides mild keratolytic action.

Because benzoyl peroxide is an oxidising agent rather than an antibiotic, bacteria do not develop resistance to it. Most patients experience skin purging or mild irritation between weeks 2 and 6. Meaningful clinical improvement is evaluated at 12 weeks of consistent once-nightly application.

Side effects and when to stop

Local cutaneous reactions are common during the first few weeks of starting Epiduo. Most reactions are mild to moderate and resolve as your skin adjusts.

• Expected adjustments: Dryness, erythema (redness), scaling, and a mild stinging or burning sensation. Using a gentle non-comedogenic moisturiser and broad-spectrum daily sunscreen reduces these effects.
• When to reduce frequency: If irritation is persistent, apply every other night until tolerance improves.
• When to stop: Discontinue use and seek urgent medical care if you develop severe contact dermatitis, intense swelling of the face or eyelids, or signs of an allergic reaction.

Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

Securing a private dermatology appointment in Almería can take several weeks and often costs between 80 € and 150 € before pharmacy costs. Hi-Doctor offers a direct, fully accredited alternative.

Pay 40 € flat with zero financial risk. If the doctor determines Epiduo is not clinically appropriate for you, the fee is refunded in full.

You avoid waiting rooms and scheduling conflicts. Every consultation is reviewed by a registered EU doctor who issues an official valid electronic prescription containing all mandatory identifiers established under Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU.

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.
