Who qualifies for Skinoren online
Our online service is for adults seeking topical acne treatment. You may qualify for an online consultation for Skinoren (azelaic acid 15% gel) or other topical acne medications if you:
- Are an adult patient residing in the EU.
- Have mild to moderate acne manageable with topical treatments.
- Can provide clear photos of your skin condition for the doctor's review.
Important: Hi-Doctor does NOT prescribe oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane/Accutane), oral antibiotics, or hormonal therapy for acne. We also do not treat nodulocystic or scarring acne. These conditions require in-person care, and our doctors will refer you if your case falls into these categories.
What Skinoren actually does
Skinoren contains azelaic acid 15% gel. It works in several ways to combat acne:
- Comedolytic action: Prevents blackheads and whiteheads by normalising skin cell turnover.
- Antibacterial properties: Reduces the growth of acne-causing bacteria, specifically Cutibacterium acnes.
- Anti-inflammatory effects: Helps reduce redness and swelling associated with acne lesions.
Azelaic acid is often chosen for pregnant patients and those with darker skin phototypes because it does not cause photosensitivity and carries a low risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. You typically apply it twice daily. For acne, meaningful changes are usually judged at 12 weeks, not before. Be patient with your treatment.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, Skinoren can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include:
- Burning, itching, or stinging sensation at the application site.
- Redness or dryness of the skin.
- Peeling or scaling.
These side effects are often mild and tend to decrease as your skin adjusts to the medication. If side effects become severe, persistent, or you experience an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing), stop using Skinoren immediately and seek medical attention. Always follow your prescribing doctor's instructions and read the patient information leaflet.
