3. Doctor review in under 24 hours: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case and, when clinically appropriate, issues an electronic prescription in under 24 hours.

Who qualifies

Hi-Doctor provides dedicated consultations across four dermatology pathways: Acne, Rosacea, Melasma, and Anti-ageing. You can request a consultation for Hydroquinone online in Ceuta if you are an adult managing melasma evaluated under our dermatology pathway.

• Mandatory photo upload: You must upload clear photographs of your skin during the questionnaire. The doctor grades pigment distribution and severity directly from your photos.
• Topical treatment only: Hi-Doctor's doctors only evaluate and prescribe topical dermatology formulations. Patients with severe, nodular, or scarring skin conditions requiring oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics are referred to in-person clinical care.
• Contraindications: Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, as well as individuals with open wounds, acute dermatitis, or known hypersensitivity to depigmenting agents, will not be approved for hydroquinone.

What Hydroquinone actually does

Hydroquinone is a medical-grade depigmenting agent that acts as a reversible inhibitor of tyrosinase. Tyrosinase is the essential enzyme that converts L-DOPA into melanin inside melanocytes. By blocking this enzymatic pathway, hydroquinone halts the production of new pigment while existing surface pigmentation exfoliates away through normal cellular renewal.

Depending on your clinical assessment, the doctor may prescribe:

• Hydroquinone 4% cream (HQUIN) or 4% gel (Licoforte): Standard single-agent tyrosinase inhibitors applied thinly at night.
• Compounded melasma formula: A modified Kligman-style formulation combining hydroquinone 4% + tretinoin 0.025% + kojic acid 2% + niacinamide 4% to accelerate epidermal turnover and control inflammation.

Visible lightening typically begins between 4 and 8 weeks of nightly application. Hydroquinone is prescribed in defined treatment cycles (typically 8 to 12 weeks) rather than for continuous, indefinite use. Because melasma is driven by UV and visible light, daily broad-spectrum SPF 50+ is mandatory throughout treatment. Tinted sunscreens containing iron oxides provide additional protection against visible light that standard mineral filters miss.

Side effects and when to stop

Topical depigmenting therapy can cause mild, localized skin reactions during the initial acclimation phase. You should monitor your skin closely throughout your prescribed cycle.

• Expected mild effects: Slight redness (erythema), mild localized peeling, dryness, or a transient tingling sensation after application.
• Signs to stop treatment: Severe burning, intense swelling, weeping blisters, or acute contact dermatitis. Discontinue use immediately and reach out to your doctor.
• Exogenous ochronosis risk: A rare blue-black pigmentation associated with uninterrupted, long-term hydroquinone misuse. Adhere strictly to the defined treatment duration set by your prescribing doctor.
