Does Hi-Doctor treat Psoriasis?

Not today. Hi-Doctor covers hair growth, weight management, sexual health and skin — acne, rosacea, melasma and ageing skin — and Psoriasis is outside that catalogue. Our doctors can't review the case through the platform.

Will you add Psoriasis in the future?

We expand the catalogue as new specialists join Hi-Doctor and country-level regulation allows it. You can drop your email below and we'll notify you if Psoriasis comes onto the platform.

What does Hi-Doctor recommend in the meantime?

If your question fits any of the areas we cover, an EU-licensed doctor reviews it in less than 2 hours on average. The plan is €25/month for weight loss or €15/month (billed €45 every 90 days) for hair growth; sexual health remains a €35 one-off consultation and a skin consultation is €40. If it does not fit, we recommend an in-person specialist.

What will you use my email for?

Only to notify you when Psoriasis is available on Hi-Doctor. We don't share data with third parties. We're GDPR-compliant and you can unsubscribe at any time.

Can I join the waiting list from Ljubljana?

Yes. Hi-Doctor runs 100% online across the EU. When Psoriasis becomes available, we'll email you and you'll be able to start the consultation from Ljubljana without travelling. If the treatment requires a prescription, the electronic prescription we issue is valid at any EU pharmacy under Directive 2011/24/EU.

What does a Hi-Doctor doctor review in an online consultation?

Your clinical history, current medication, allergies, relevant family history and the goals you share in the questionnaire. Everything through the private chat in your account — no WhatsApp, no SMS. The doctor decides if the case is eligible and explains it in less than 2 hours on average.

What is the private electronic prescription and why is it valid across the EU?

The private electronic prescription (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) is issued by a licensed doctor in Spain. It is a PDF carrying every field required by EU Directive 2011/24/EU (patient, prescriber with country of registration, active ingredient, dose), which makes it legally recognised across all 27 EU member states. In Spanish pharmacies it is dispensed from the QR; outside Spain, the pharmacist dispenses the locally marketed equivalent of the same active ingredient.

How does Hi-Doctor work step by step?

1) Fill in an online medical questionnaire in about 4 minutes. 2) The plan is €25/month for weight loss or €15/month (billed €45 every 90 days) for hair growth; sexual health is €35 per consultation and a skin consultation is €40. 3) An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case and, if appropriate, issues an electronic prescription. 4) Collect it at any EU pharmacy. If the review is not approved, the applicable fee is refunded in full.

SKIN ON HI-DOCTOR

Skin is one of the areas our doctors do cover.

Acne, rosacea, melasma and ageing skin are reviewed online by an EU-licensed doctor for €40, and anything prescribed is applied to the skin. Psoriasis is not part of that consultation today — for it you still need a dermatologist you see in person.

WHAT IT IS

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition of autoimmune origin characterised by red, scaly plaques, especially on the elbows, knees, scalp and lower back. It is not contagious.

It is caused by an accelerated skin-cell renewal cycle driven by an abnormal immune response, leading to cell accumulation on the skin surface.

The course of the disease varies between individuals, with flare-ups and periods of remission. A dermatologist assesses the extent and type of psoriasis to propose the most suitable treatment.

HOW COMMON IT IS

Psoriasis affects approximately 2–3 % of the world population, with similar prevalence in men and women.

International Federation of Psoriasis Associations (IFPA)

CAUSES

Genetic predisposition — multiple genes linked to immune response
Abnormal activation of T-cells that accelerates cell renewal
Trigger factors such as infections, stress, skin injuries or certain medications
Cold, dry weather that can worsen flare-ups
Association with other conditions such as psoriatic arthritis

TREATMENT APPROACHES

Topical corticosteroids as first-line treatment for mild to moderate plaques
Topical vitamin D analogues, alone or combined with corticosteroids
Phototherapy with narrow-band UVB under dermatological supervision
Systemic treatment with methotrexate, ciclosporin or acitretin for moderate to severe cases
Targeted biologic therapies for moderate to severe cases that do not respond to other treatments
General measures: skin moisturising, avoiding scratching and stress management

WHEN TO SEE A DOCTOR

See a doctor if plaques appear that do not improve with moisturising creams, if lesions spread or are painful, or if you have joint pain and swelling (possible psoriatic arthritis).
