How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

The entire consultation is asynchronous. You do not need an in-person visit, video call, or scheduled telephone appointment.

1. Complete the medical questionnaire: Answer focused clinical questions regarding your acne history, skin type, symptoms, and previous treatments.
2. Upload clear skin photographs: Provide high-resolution photos of the affected areas so the doctor can evaluate lesion type and disease severity.
3. Doctor assessment: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your clinical data. If appropriate, they issue a Spanish REMPE (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) prescription within 24 hours.
4. Present your prescription: Download the official PDF from your secure account or email, print it, and present it at any pharmacy in Catania to request your medication.

Who qualifies

To safely get Skinoren online, your symptoms must fall within the scope of mild-to-moderate facial dermatology suitable for remote evaluation. Our doctors assess every case individually using your responses and uploaded images.

Clinical Status	Eligible for Online Treatment	Recommended Pathway
Mild-to-moderate comedonal & inflammatory acne	Yes	Topical Azelaic Acid 15% gel (Skinoren) or Adapalene/BPO
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or darker skin types	Yes	Topical Azelaic Acid 15% gel (Skinoren)
Papulopustular rosacea	Yes	Topical Azelaic Acid 15% or topical compounded therapy
Severe nodulocystic or scarring acne	No	Referral to in-person dermatology for oral isotretinoin

Hi-Doctor's dermatology service is strictly topical. Patients with severe cystic lesions, deep scarring, or indications requiring oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics are referred to local in-person clinics.

What Skinoren actually does

Skinoren contains 15% azelaic acid, a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid. It addresses acne pathogenesis through distinct, evidence-based mechanisms:

• Antibacterial action: Inhibits the growth of Cutibacterium acnes without triggering microbial resistance.
• Comedolytic effect: Normalises epidermal keratinisation, clearing clogged pores and reducing microcomedone formation.
• Anti-inflammatory: Scavenges reactive oxygen species to reduce redness and inflammatory papules.
• Pigment control: Selectively inhibits hyperactive melanocytes (tyrosinase inhibition), treating post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation safely across deeper skin phototypes.

Doctors typically prescribe azelaic acid 15% gel for twice-daily application. Visible progress takes time; initial improvements often appear by week 4, but meaningful clinical change must be judged at 12 weeks of consistent use.

Side effects and when to stop

Skinoren is generally well tolerated because it does not cause systemic phototoxicity or significant absorption. However, local skin irritation can occur during the first few weeks of therapy.

• Common transient effects: Mild stinging, burning, itching, or local dryness at the application site. These symptoms usually subside as the skin barrier adapts.
• Minimising irritation: Apply a non-comedogenic moisturiser before or after application, or start with once-daily application before moving to twice daily.
• When to stop: Discontinue use and message our medical team if you experience severe erythema, blistering, swelling, or signs of allergic contact dermatitis.
