Who qualifies
Online rosacea consultations are designed for adult patients dealing with mild-to-moderate facial rosacea. Eligibility is assessed individually by an EU-licensed doctor based on symptom presentation and medical history.

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory condition influenced by external and internal triggers. Identifying and managing triggers such as ultraviolet radiation, alcohol, hot beverages, spicy foods, temperature shifts, and psychological stress is essential alongside topical pharmacotherapy.
Certain presentations fall outside the scope of remote care. Hi-Doctor evaluates and treats mild-to-moderate topical conditions only:
- Topical treatment only: Oral antibiotics, oral isotretinoin, and systemic therapies are not prescribed online.
- In-person referrals: Severe, nodular, or cystic disease, ocular rosacea (eye involvement), rhinophyma (tissue hypertrophy), and vascular laser/IPL therapy require an in-person medical assessment.
What Soolantra actually does
Soolantra is the commercial brand name for ivermectin 1% topical cream. Ivermectin targets papulopustular rosacea through a dual mechanism: reducing the density of microscopic Demodex mites residing in hair follicles and exerting an anti-inflammatory effect by suppressing inflammatory cytokines.
Hi-Doctor handles treatment options transparently: our medical team does not prescribe brand-name Soolantra monotherapy. Instead, our doctors prescribe targeted compounded alternatives or established first-line topicals that address multiple rosacea pathways simultaneously.
| Treatment | Active Ingredients | Mechanism of Action | Primary Clinical Target |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brand Soolantra | Ivermectin 1% | Anti-parasitic (anti-Demodex) and anti-inflammatory monotherapy | Papulopustular rosacea (Not prescribed by Hi-Doctor) |
| Compounded Papulopustular Gel | Ivermectin 1% + Metronidazole 0.75% + Niacinamide 2% | Dual antimicrobial/antiparasitic action plus skin barrier support | Inflammatory bumps, pustules, and localized erythema |
| Compounded Erythema Cream | Metronidazole 0.75% + Niacinamide 4% + Azelaic Acid 10% + Allantoin 0.5% | Anti-inflammatory, redness reduction, and soothing hydration | Persistent central facial erythema and skin sensitivity |
| Azelaic Acid 15% Gel | Azelaic acid 15% | Inhibits follicular keratinisation and reduces inflammatory lesions | Mild-to-moderate papulopustular rosacea |
Rosacea is a manageable condition rather than a curable one; ongoing maintenance is typically required, and relapses can occur upon stopping therapy. Visible improvement with topical ivermectin combinations is commonly observed between weeks 4 and 8, with peak therapeutic response assessed around weeks 12 to 16.
Side effects and when to stop
Most patients tolerate topical rosacea treatments well, but localized skin reactions can occur during the initial phase of application.
- Common reactions: Mild burning, stinging, skin dryness, itching, or temporary localized redness at the application site.
- Transient worsening: A brief increase in inflammatory papules may occur during the first 1 to 2 weeks as Demodex mite load decreases.
- When to discontinue: Stop treatment and seek in-person medical evaluation immediately if you experience severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, eye irritation, or unmanageable burning.
