How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

Getting evaluated for prescription acne care takes minutes from your phone or computer. You never need to book time off work or sit in a crowded waiting room.

1. Complete the medical questionnaire: Answer focused questions about your breakout history, past topical treatments, and current skincare routine.
2. Upload skin photos: Attach high-resolution photos of the affected skin areas so the doctor can accurately grade lesion type and inflammatory severity.
3. Doctor review: An EU-registered medical doctor assesses your clinical case asynchronously within 24 hours.
4. Receive your REMPE prescription: If approved, your official digital prescription (Spain's Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) is generated immediately as a downloadable PDF in your patient portal and emailed to you. You can print the PDF or show the digital code to present it at any local pharmacy in Salamanca.

Who qualifies

Adapalene is a targeted topical retinoid indicated for specific presentations of acne vulgaris. To ensure patient safety, our doctors strictly evaluate eligibility before approving a prescription.

Eligible candidates typically present with:

• Mild-to-moderate comedonal acne (blackheads and whiteheads).
• Mild-to-moderate inflammatory papulopustular acne on the face, chest, or back.
• Adults and adolescents looking for targeted topical management rather than systemic drugs.

Who is referred to in-person care:

• Patients with severe nodulocystic, conglobate, or actively scarring acne.
• Patients requiring oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or systemic oral antibiotics.
• Individuals who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant (topical retinoids are contraindicated).

What Adapalene actually does

Adapalene is a stable, third-generation synthetic retinoid. It selectively targets retinoic acid receptors (specifically RAR-beta and RAR-gamma) in the skin's follicular epithelium. This action normalises cellular turnover, unblocks clogged pores (comedolytic effect), and directly inhibits local inflammatory pathways.

Hi-Doctor's physicians frequently prescribe a combination gel containing adapalene 0.1% and benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (marketed as Epiduo or Acniduo). This dual-action approach targets microcomedones while the benzoyl peroxide rapidly neutralises Cutibacterium acnes without driving antibiotic resistance.

Topical Treatment	Primary Clinical Mechanism	Typical Application	Assessment Window
Adapalene 0.1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5%	Comedolytic turnover + bactericidal action	Once nightly	Full evaluation at 12 weeks
Azelaic Acid 15% Gel	Antibacterial + reduces hyperpigmentation	Twice daily	Full evaluation at 12 weeks
Clindamycin 1% + Benzoyl Peroxide	Short-term anti-inflammatory antibacterial	Once nightly (max 12 weeks)	Review at 8–12 weeks

Side effects and when to stop

During the first 2 to 6 weeks of retinoid use, many patients experience a standard "purging" phase. This involves temporary redness, dryness, mild peeling, and an initial increase in surface blemishes as deep microcomedones surface. True clinical improvement is judged at 12 weeks, not before.

Expected mild side effects:

• Transient erythema (mild redness) and stinging upon application.
• Localised flaking or skin tightness around the mouth and nose.
• Increased sensitivity to UV radiation (daily SPF 50 sunscreen is required).

When to discontinue use: Stop applying the medication and consult a healthcare professional immediately if you experience severe contact dermatitis, intense facial swelling, burning hives, or an allergic reaction.

Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

Getting an in-person dermatology appointment in Salamanca can involve long delays in the public system or high private consultation rates exceeding 100 €. Hi-Doctor removes friction with a structured, doctor-led digital alternative.

Money-Back Guarantee: There is no financial risk. If our medical doctor determines that Adapalene or topical acne treatment is not clinically safe or appropriate for your condition, your 40 € consultation fee is refunded in full.

Your approved prescription uses Spain's official REMPE electronic framework. In Spain, pharmacies validate the QR code directly against the central system. Under Directive 2011/24/EU (with prescriber credentials structured under Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU), your prescription is formatted for cross-border recognition across the EU, although individual dispensing pharmacists retain final professional discretion.
