Hi-Doctor provides dedicated dermatology consultations for acne, rosacea, melasma, and anti-ageing. For this pathway, our doctors evaluate adult patients managing mild to moderate facial acne vulgaris.

Editorial still life illustrating Who qualifies
Who qualifies
  • Mild to moderate acne: Patients with whiteheads, blackheads, and superficial red pimples.
  • Sensitive or darker skin phototypes: Azelaic acid carries a low risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation compared to harsher topical agents and does not photosensitise.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Azelaic acid is frequently the first-line topical choice when retinoids are contraindicated.

Clinical exclusions: Hi-Doctor only provides topical treatments. Severe nodulocystic acne, deep conglobate lesions, scarring acne, and cases requiring oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or systemic oral antibiotics are out of scope and referred to in-person clinical care.

Treatment Option Active Ingredients Application Regimen Primary Clinical Use
Skinoren / Finacea Azelaic acid 15% Twice daily Comedolytic & antibacterial; safe for darker skin & pregnancy
Epiduo / Acniduo Adapalene 0.1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% Once nightly Dual action against comedones and inflammatory lesions
Duac Clindamycin 1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 3% or 5% Once nightly (max 12 weeks) Targeted anti-inflammatory action without antibiotic resistance

What Skinoren actually does

Skinoren contains 15% azelaic acid, a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid. It exerts dual therapeutic actions: it normalises follicular keratinisation (preventing dead skin cells from clogging pores) and inhibits the proliferation of Cutibacterium acnes bacteria without inducing bacterial resistance.

Unlike topical retinoids, azelaic acid does not cause phototoxicity or extreme sun sensitivity. However, meaningful clinical improvement takes time. Visible reduction in lesion count is evaluated at 12 weeks of consistent application, though minor improvements may appear within 4 to 8 weeks.

Side effects and when to stop

Azelaic acid is generally well tolerated, but localized skin reactions can occur during the initial weeks of treatment.

  • Common, transient effects: Mild stinging, burning, itching, or local dryness at the application site. These typically subside within 2 to 4 weeks as your skin adapts.
  • Managing irritation: Apply a light moisturizer before Skinoren or reduce application to once daily until tolerance builds.
  • When to discontinue: Stop application immediately and seek medical evaluation if you experience severe erythema, blistering, swelling, or signs of an allergic contact reaction.

Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

Securing a dermatology consultation in Madrid and the surrounding Getafe area can involve multi-week delays in public care or high private consultation rates exceeding 100 €. Hi-Doctor offers a streamlined, fully compliant medical alternative.

  • Fixed, transparent price: A 40 € one-off consultation fee covers your questionnaire assessment, clinical photo review, and prescription issuance.
  • Zero financial risk: If the evaluating doctor decides that topical azelaic acid is unsuitable for your condition, your 40 € fee is refunded in full.
  • Legally certified across the EU: In Spain, the electronic prescription is validated instantly at local pharmacies via the central digital database. Under Directive 2011/24/EU, the PDF prescription is also designed for cross-border recognition across EU Member States (individual dispensing remains subject to local pharmacist review).
