Who qualifies

Skinoren (azelaic acid 15% gel) is suitable for mild to moderate inflammatory acne, comedones, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It is particularly valuable for darker skin phototypes and during pregnancy, as it does not photosensitise skin.

Hi-Doctor exclusively treats topical dermatology cases online. Patients with severe nodulocystic acne, deep scarring, or those requiring oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics are out of scope and referred to in-person clinical care.

What Skinoren actually does

Skinoren contains 15% azelaic acid, a dicarboxylic acid that acts as both a comedolytic and an antibacterial agent. Applied twice daily, it normalises keratinisation inside follicular ducts to prevent pore blockages while reducing the proliferation of Cutibacterium acnes.

Because azelaic acid is not an antibiotic, it does not drive bacterial resistance. Realistic timelines require patience: initial skin purging can occur during weeks 2 to 6, and meaningful clinical improvement is evaluated at 12 weeks of consistent use.

Over 50,000 patients have accessed licensed medical consultations through Hi-Doctor, maintaining a 4.8 Trustpilot rating across the European Union.

Side effects and when to stop

Local cutaneous irritation is common during the first few weeks of starting azelaic acid 15% gel. Most reactions are mild and diminish with continued application.

• Expected mild effects: Transient stinging, mild burning, erythema, dryness, and minor peeling at the application site.
• Managing sensitivity: You may reduce application to once daily or apply after a light moisturiser until skin tolerance develops.
• When to stop: Discontinue use and seek urgent medical attention if you experience severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, or signs of an acute allergic reaction.

Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

Accessing private dermatology appointments in Genoa can involve long booking delays and high consultation fees. Hi-Doctor offers a direct 40 € one-off consultation reviewed by EU-licensed physicians within 24 hours.

Your consultation comes with zero financial risk: if our doctor determines that topical treatment is clinically unsuitable, your 40 € fee is refunded in full. When approved, prescriptions are issued under Spain's official REMPE (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) standard, formatted with all prescriber and product identifiers required under Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU.
