How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

Getting evaluated for an acne prescription online is direct, private, and completed entirely from your phone or computer. You never have to book a video call or take time off work.

1. Complete the medical questionnaire: Answer focused questions regarding your skin type, breakout history, previous treatments, and any current health conditions.
2. Upload clear skin photos: Attach high-resolution, unedited photos of your affected areas. The doctor uses these images to grade your acne severity and check for contraindications.
3. Doctor review within 24 hours: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your file and clinical photos to determine if azelaic acid 15% gel (Skinoren) is medically suitable for you.
4. Download your valid electronic prescription: When clinically appropriate, the doctor issues a valid electronic prescription PDF to your account and email. You can present this PDF on your phone or print it for any pharmacy in Mataró or throughout the EU.

Who qualifies

Skinoren (azelaic acid 15% gel) is a prescription treatment indicated for specific dermatological presentations. To qualify through Hi-Doctor's online acne consultation, you must meet clear clinical criteria:

• Age and residency: You are an adult (18+) residing in Mataró, elsewhere in Catalonia, or within the European Union.
• Mild to moderate acne: You experience persistent comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), papules, pustules, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
• Suitable medical profile: You are looking for a non-photosensitising topical agent, including patients with sensitive skin, darker phototypes, or those navigating pregnancy where retinoids are strictly contraindicated.
• In-person referrals (Out of Scope): Hi-Doctor only prescribes topical therapies. Severe nodular, cystic, or scarring acne requires in-person medical supervision. We do not prescribe oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or oral antibiotics online; patients presenting with severe disease will be referred to in-person care.

What Skinoren actually does

Skinoren contains 15% azelaic acid, a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid. It treats acne through a dual mechanism: it functions as a comedolytic agent (normalising epidermal keratinisation to prevent clogged pores) and provides antibacterial action against Cutibacterium acnes without triggering microbial resistance.

Azelaic acid does not cause photosensitivity, making it particularly well-suited for sunny coastal climates like Mataró. However, skin cell turnover takes time. While minor skin purging may occur during weeks 2 to 6, visible and sustained clinical improvement is formally assessed at 12 weeks of continuous use.

Side effects and when to stop

Azelaic acid is generally well-tolerated compared to strong retinoids, but local cutaneous side effects can occur during the initial adaptation period.

• Common initial reactions: Mild stinging, burning, itching, or transient skin redness often appear in the first 1 to 3 weeks. Applying a basic non-comedogenic moisturiser before or after application helps mitigate irritation.
• When to pause or reduce frequency: If peeling or discomfort is persistent, reduce application to once daily or every other night until the skin barrier recovers.
• When to stop immediately: Discontinue use and contact a healthcare professional if you experience severe swelling, hives, or signs of an acute allergic reaction.

Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

Booking a private dermatology appointment in Mataró often involves long waiting lists and consultation fees exceeding 100 €. Hi-Doctor streamlines non-emergency skin care into an efficient digital pathway.

Under EU Directive 2011/24/EU and Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU, standard cross-border prescriptions issued by EU doctors carry mutual recognition across Member States.

With Hi-Doctor, you complete your consultation in minutes for a flat 40 € fee. Your prescription is delivered digitally as an official the valid electronic prescription (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) document featuring a verifiable QR code. In Spain, pharmacies validate this directly against the national registry; in other EU Member States, pharmacists review the mandatory details and may dispense the medication or local equivalent. You retain complete clinical transparency without clinic delays.

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.
