Who qualifies
Hi-Doctor's online dermatology pathway is designed for adult patients dealing with mild to moderate facial rosacea. Qualification depends entirely on the doctor's assessment of your symptoms and uploaded photos.

- Papulopustular Rosacea: Patients presenting with central facial redness accompanied by inflammatory papules and pustules.
- Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea: Persistent facial redness and flushing where topical multi-ingredient management may assist.
- Adult Patients (18+): Individuals resident in Palermo or across the European Union seeking topical clinical care.
Out-of-scope conditions: Severe cystic disease, ocular rosacea (affecting eyes or eyelids), rhinophyma (tissue hypertrophy of the nose), and requirements for oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics are referred to in-person care.
What Soolantra actually does
Soolantra is a brand-name topical cream containing 1% ivermectin. It acts via an anti-parasitic mechanism against Demodex mites—microscopic skin flora found in significantly higher densities in rosacea patients—combined with direct anti-inflammatory effects that inhibit inflammatory cytokines.
Because rosacea involves multiple pathological pathways (microbial overgrowth, vascular hyperactivity, and skin barrier dysfunction), Hi-Doctor's formulary focuses on multi-active topical formulations rather than single-agent Soolantra:
| Treatment Option | Active Ingredients | Primary Clinical Indication | Formulary Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Soolantra (Reference) | Ivermectin 1% | Papulopustular rosacea (Demodex reduction) | Off-formulary (Not prescribed) |
| Compounded Papulopustular Gel | Ivermectin 1% + Metronidazole 0.75% + Niacinamide 2% | Inflammatory papules, pustules, Demodex, and barrier support | Available via doctor assessment |
| Compounded Erythema Cream | Metronidazole 0.75% + Niacinamide 4% + Azelaic Acid 10% + Allantoin 0.5% | Persistent central redness, inflammation, and soothing | Available via doctor assessment |
| Azelaic Acid 15% Gel | Azelaic Acid 15% | First-line monotherapy for mild-to-moderate papulopustular rosacea | Available via doctor assessment |
Rosacea is a chronic condition that is controlled rather than permanently cured. Clinical improvement is typically observed between weeks 4 and 12 of consistent daily application. Avoiding environmental triggers such as direct ultraviolet light, alcohol, spicy foods, and extreme heat remains critical alongside topical medical treatment.
Side effects and when to stop
Topical rosacea treatments are generally well tolerated, but localized skin reactions can occur during the first 2 to 4 weeks of therapy as your skin adapts:
- Common reactions: Mild stinging, transient burning, localized dryness, peeling, or mild skin irritation.
- Initial transient flare: A brief increase in inflammatory bumps may occur during the first two weeks as Demodex mites die off.
- When to stop immediately: Discontinue use and seek medical attention if you experience severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, hives, or intense blistering.
Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic
Booking a private dermatologist in Palermo often involves long waiting times and consultation fees ranging from 100 € to 200 €. Hi-Doctor simplifies access through asynchronous digital care:

- No Appointment Delays: Submit your medical questionnaire and photographs at any time; a doctor reviews within 24 hours and issues a prescription when clinically appropriate.

- Cross-Border Prescription Standard: Prescriptions are issued via the Spanish REMPE electronic standard containing mandatory prescriber and product details specified by Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU. Under Directive 2011/24/EU on cross-border healthcare, the prescription can be presented at any EU pharmacy, where the pharmacist may dispense a locally marketed equivalent. Pharmacists retain the right to refuse.
- Fair Pricing Policy: A one-off 40 € fee covers the doctor's review. The 40 EUR consultation fee is refunded in full if the doctor does not issue a prescription.
