Frequently asked questions

Do I need a consultation for these treatments?

Yes. This is a consultation-led supply pathway. A prescriber reviews your information and confirms suitability before any prescription-only treatment is supplied.

Which option is best for acne?

Tretinoin is usually the strongest option for acne. If your skin is sensitive or rosacea-prone, azelaic acid can be a better first step.

Which option is best for pigmentation or melasma?

Tranexamic acid is pigment focused and commonly chosen for melasma and stubborn dark marks. Azelaic acid and tretinoin can also help, depending on your skin and tolerance.

Can I use these in pregnancy?

Some ingredients are not suitable in pregnancy or while trying to conceive. Always complete the consultation accurately so a prescriber can advise appropriately.

Do I need to use SPF?

Yes. Daily SPF is strongly recommended, especially when treating pigmentation or using retinoids, to protect results and reduce irritation.
