Who qualifies

Hi-Doctor's acne consultation pathway is designed for adults dealing with mild to moderate inflammatory or comedonal acne. Eligibility is determined strictly by the reviewing doctor based on clinical safety criteria.

Eligible for Online Consultation	Out of Scope (Requires In-Person Care)
Mild to moderate comedonal acne (blackheads, whiteheads)	Severe nodulocystic, conglobate, or deeply scarring acne
Papulopustular acne on face, chest, or back	Requests for oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or oral antibiotics
Adults seeking topical maintenance (e.g., adapalene + benzoyl peroxide)	Patients with complex lesions requiring physical biopsy or drainage
Patients without contraindications to topical retinoids	Pregnant patients seeking topical retinoids (alternative topicals assessed)

Please note that oral dermatological drugs such as oral isotretinoin and oral antibiotics are outside Hi-Doctor's clinical scope. Patients presenting with severe cystic disease are referred to local in-person clinics.

What Adapalene actually does

Adapalene is a third-generation topical retinoid that binds selectively to nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RAR-beta and RAR-gamma). This action normalises the differentiation of follicular epithelial cells, unclogging microcomedones and preventing new acne lesions from forming.

When combined with benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (as in Epiduo or generic formulations), it attacks acne on two fronts simultaneously: cellular turnover and rapid antibacterial action against Cutibacterium acnes without triggering bacterial resistance.

• Weeks 1–2: Skin begins cell turnover. Mild dryness may appear.
• Weeks 2–6: Retinoid purging may occur as underlying microcomedones surface.
• Weeks 8–12: Reduction in inflammatory papules and smoothing of overall skin texture. Definitive clinical results are assessed at 12 weeks.

Side effects and when to stop

Topical retinoids commonly cause local skin adaptation symptoms during the first month. Most mild symptoms resolve as tolerance builds with proper moisturiser use and sun protection.

• Expected, mild effects: Local erythema (redness), flaking, peeling, mild stinging upon application, and transient skin tightness.
• Management: Apply a non-comedogenic moisturiser, reduce application frequency to alternate nights initially, and apply broad-spectrum SPF 50 daily.
• When to discontinue: Stop treatment and message the medical team or seek immediate care if you experience severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, intense burning, or blistering.
