Advanced acne service

This option is designed for all types and severities of acne and can be used to either start new or continue existing treatment.

The current NHS waiting times for dermatology are long, with some patients receiving appointments for 18 months’ time. Acne can have a significant effect on an individual’s quality of life but fortunately there are plenty of available treatments including topicals and those in tablet/capsule form.

One we get asked about a lot is Spironolactone. If you are female and this is something you are considering and you would like to know more, you may want to read our guide. [see attached – please make into a website page like we did for ISO guide – everything you need to know]

Other ones include antibiotics, topical retinoids, topical acids, compounded treatment and next generation treatments.

The service works similarly to our ‘Live Consultation’ option but with added extras. Booking a consultation with one of our UK-based Consultant Dermatologists will give you full access to everything that skindoc can offer with 1:1 care, informational material, personalised clinical letters, a prescription (if required), and extended-hours administrative support. All paperwork is digital.

Please note that a mandatory ID check is required before we can address your problem.
