Frequently Asked Questions

Clear, medically verified answers regarding online dermatologist assessments, retinoid protocols, prescription refills, and tracked pharmacy dispensing.

No. You do not need an existing paper prescription or GP referral. Our service includes an online medical intake reviewed by GMC-registered UK doctors. Once evaluated and deemed clinically appropriate, our attending prescribers issue a verified digital prescription that is sent directly to our dispensing pharmacy.
The clinical questionnaire takes approximately 3 to 4 minutes to complete. Our prescribers review submissions within 2 to 4 hours during dispensary hours (Monday through Saturday). You will receive an immediate electronic copy of your verified prescription via email.
All orders placed before 2:00 PM GMT are compounded/inspected and dispatched the same day. UK orders are shipped via Royal Mail Tracked 24 (1–2 business days). International orders are shipped via Priority Tracked Courier (3–5 business days to USA and Europe) in discreet, unbranded tamper-evident packaging.
During the first 2 to 4 weeks of starting tretinoin, cellular turnover accelerates, which can temporarily bring micro-comedones to the surface (the 'purge') alongside mild peeling. We advise starting with a low strength (such as 0.025%) applied 2 nights per week over a ceramide moisturizer (the 'sandwich technique'), gradually increasing frequency as tolerance develops.
Yes. In clinical dermatology, combining Tretinoin with Azelaic Acid (or Hydroquinone for melasma) is considered the gold-standard protocol for accelerated pigment clearance and acne control. We recommend using Azelaic Acid in the morning and Tretinoin at night, accompanied by daily broad-spectrum SPF 50.
Existing patients can reorder instantly through our dedicated Refill portal (/refill) by entering their previous Order # or Prescription reference. There is no need to repeat the full medical questionnaire for maintenance courses unless your health status or medications have changed.
100% genuine. We only dispense authentic, regulated pharmaceutical products from audited manufacturers (such as Menarini, Glenmark, Curatio, Galderma, and Wallace). Every unit features its original batch/lot number and expiration date, and can be verified anytime on our electronic Prescription Registry (/verify).
