Who qualifies for online acne treatment

Hi-Doctor's acne consultation pathway is designed for patients dealing with mild to moderate comedonal and inflammatory acne. Doctors assess your profile to ensure topical treatment is clinically suitable for your specific skin presentation.

• Eligible presentations: Comedonal acne (blackheads and whiteheads), superficial papules, and mild-to-moderate inflammatory pustules.
• Photo assessment required: You must upload clear photographs of the affected skin for clinical grading by the reviewing doctor.
• Topical therapy focus: Clinical care via this pathway is strictly topical.
• Strict referral criteria: Severe nodulocystic acne, deep conglobate lesions, scarring acne, or conditions requiring oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics are entirely out of scope and referred directly to in-person specialist care.

What Differin actually does

Differin is a brand name for adapalene 0.1%, a third-generation topical retinoid that binds selectively to retinoic acid nuclear receptors. It accelerates cellular turnover, normalises follicular keratinisation, and prevents microcomedones from forming inside pores.

Hi-Doctor’s medical formulary pairs adapalene 0.1% with benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (the Epiduo/Acniduo formulation) rather than prescribing adapalene monotherapy. Benzoyl peroxide introduces oxygen into the pore to eradicate Cutibacterium acnes bacteria without creating antibiotic resistance. This dual mechanism addresses both pore blockages and active inflammation simultaneously.

Treatment Option	Primary Active Ingredients	Mechanism of Action	Application Frequency
Adapalene + BPO Gel	Adapalene 0.1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5%	Comedolytic cellular turnover + rapid bacterial clearance	Once nightly
Azelaic Acid Gel	Azelaic Acid 15% (Skinoren)	Antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, reduces hyperpigmentation	Twice daily
Clindamycin + BPO Gel	Clindamycin 1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 3–5% (Duac)	Topical antibiotic paired with BPO to prevent resistance	Once nightly (max 12 weeks)

Side effects and when to stop

Retinoid therapy requires patience and consistent application. During weeks 2 through 6, mild retinoid purging, erythema (redness), dryness, and peeling are normal physiological responses as microcomedones surface.

True clinical efficacy is evaluated at week 12, not before. Always apply a broad-spectrum daily sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher), as retinoids increase epidermal photosensitivity. Discontinue use and message your doctor if you experience severe contact dermatitis, eyelid swelling, blistering, or intense burning.
