How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

Getting evaluated for prescription skincare in the Canary Islands is straightforward and asynchronous. You never need to book a video call or sit in a clinic waiting room.

1. Complete the medical questionnaire: Answer questions about your skin concerns, medical history, and current skincare routine.
2. Upload clear photos: Provide well-lit photographs of the target skin area so the doctor can evaluate skin tone, texture, and severity.
3. Doctor review: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your submission and determines whether topical Tretinoin is clinically appropriate.
4. Receive your prescription: If approved, your REMPE prescription is issued to your secure account and sent via email notification within 24 hours. You can print the PDF or show the code on your phone at any pharmacy.

Hi-Doctor operates with a 100% money-back guarantee. If the doctor determines that Tretinoin is not safe or suitable for your skin, your 40 € consultation fee is refunded immediately.

Who qualifies

Tretinoin 0.05% cream is a prescription-only topical retinoid indicated for photoageing, fine lines, uneven skin texture, and mild comedonal breakouts. Doctors evaluate your candidacy based on clinical indications and medical history.

You may qualify if you:

• Are an adult seeking evidence-based treatment for skin ageing, fine lines, or sun-damaged skin.
• Are not currently pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
• Do not have active, severe eczema, rosacea flares, or open cutaneous lesions on the application site.
• Commit to wearing broad-spectrum daily SPF protection.

Hi-Doctor provides consultations for topical treatments only. Severe, nodular, cystic, or scarring acne and conditions requiring oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics are referred to in-person specialist care.

What Tretinoin actually does

Tretinoin (all-trans retinoic acid) is the gold standard in topical anti-ageing dermatology. It binds directly to nuclear retinoic acid receptors in the skin, accelerating keratinocyte turnover in the epidermis and stimulating type-I collagen synthesis in the dermis.

Because structural collagen remodeling takes time, results develop progressively over several months. You should apply a pea-sized amount at night to clean, dry skin, starting 2 to 3 evenings per week before increasing frequency.

Phase	Timeline	What Is Happening in the Skin
Retinisation	Weeks 2–6	Accelerated cellular turnover; mild flaking, redness, and sensitivity occur as the skin adapts.
Epidermal Renewal	Weeks 6–12	Stratum corneum compacts; noticeable improvement in skin smoothness, clarity, and tone.
Dermal Remodeling	Months 6–12	Increased collagen I synthesis; reduction in fine wrinkles, photo-damage, and skin laxity.

Side effects and when to stop

Mild irritation—known as the retinisation period—is expected during the first month. Typical symptoms include temporary peeling, mild stinging, and surface dryness. A gentle moisturiser helps manage these symptoms.

When to pause or stop treatment:

• Severe burning or swelling: Wash your face immediately and pause application if severe contact dermatitis develops.
• Pregnancy: Stop use immediately if you become pregnant or suspect you may be pregnant.
• Sun exposure without protection: Tretinoin increases photosensitivity. Never skip broad-spectrum sunscreen while using this medication.
