Who qualifies

Telemedicine acne treatment is designed for mild to moderate inflammatory and comedonal acne. The asynchronous doctor review evaluates your skin type, past reactions to topical retinoids, and current symptoms.

Hi-Doctor's acne pathway strictly focuses on topical dermatological therapies. Patients presenting with severe nodulocystic acne, extensive conglobate lesions, or deep scarring are out of scope and are referred to in-person dermatologists for comprehensive physical examination.

Moderate Papulopustular Acne	Yes	Adapalene 0.1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% (Epiduo/Acniduo)

What Differin actually does

Differin contains adapalene, a selective third-generation topical retinoid. Adapalene binds specifically to retinoic acid nuclear receptors (RAR-beta and RAR-gamma) to normalise follicular epithelial desquamation, clearing microcomedones and accelerating cellular turnover.

However, Hi-Doctor does not prescribe adapalene as a monotherapy. Instead, doctors on the platform prescribe adapalene 0.1% co-formulated with benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (Epiduo). Benzoyl peroxide provides broad-spectrum bactericidal activity against Cutibacterium acnes through the release of free oxygen radicals without inducing bacterial resistance. Combining these two mechanisms targets both keratinisation abnormalities and bacterial proliferation simultaneously.

Clinical improvement follows a structured timeline. Retinoid purging—a transient surge in superficial breakouts—is common during weeks 2 to 6 as microcomedones surface. Clinically significant changes in inflammatory lesion counts are judged at 12 weeks of consistent once-nightly application.

Side effects and when to stop

Topical retinoids and benzoyl peroxide often induce localized cutaneous reactions during early treatment. Most side effects peak during the first four weeks and improve as the skin barrier adapts.

• Common expected reactions: Mild erythema, localized peeling, superficial dryness, and a transient stinging sensation upon application.
• Management tips: Apply a non-comedogenic moisturiser 20 minutes before or after treatment and apply a broad-spectrum SPF daily to counter photosensitivity.
• When to stop: Discontinue application and contact your doctor or an in-person medical provider immediately if you experience severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, blistering, or intense burning.
