Prescription Skincare for Acne, Hyperpigmentation & Anti-Ageing


Sometimes our skin needs more than what traditional 'over the counter' or cosmeceutical skincare can offer. Whether it's persistent acne or dark marks that just don't seem to fade, you don't have to settle for the frustration of trying endless over-the-counter products only to see no improvement.

We know that accessing prescription skincare safely & affordably can be confusing - that's where we can help.

Choose between a Virtual Consultation or an Online Skin Assessment—both are completely free of charge. Our Pharmacist Prescriber will evaluate your skin concerns, current skincare routine and medical history to determine if prescription skincare is right for you.

Should you choose to proceed with treatment, your prescription skincare will be delivered directly to you by our registered partner pharmacy. We’ll arrange any follow-up reviews at no additional cost.

Standard vs Bespoke Prescription Skincare


We uniquely provide both standard and bespoke prescription skincare options.

Standard prescription skincare uses licensed medications that come in fixed strengths and formulations. Since these products are mass-produced by pharmaceutical companies, they're typically more affordable. They're just as effective as personalised formulas, but they can't be modified to address your specific skin sensitivities or unique combination of concerns.

Common standard prescription skincare includes:

  • Differin 0.1% (which contains a retinoid called adapalene)
  • Skinoren 20% (high strength azelaic acid)
  • Epiduo 0.1%/2.5% (a combination of adapalene with benzoyl peroxide)

Bespoke prescription skincare, on the other hand, is completely tailored to your individual needs. These custom formulations account for your specific skin concerns, sensitivities and goals by adjusting ingredient concentrations, combining multiple active ingredients, and modifying the base formula to match your skin's tolerance level. Since personalised formulas typically have a 30-day shelf life, you'll need to reorder monthly. This option works well for those seeking a truly bespoke treatment approach.

Bespoke prescription skincare often combines active ingredients that aren't available together in standard products.

For example, a bespoke acne treatment might combine tretinoin, azelaic acid and niacinamide in a single formula.

Your prescriber will help you choose the best fit for your specific needs. We'll also recommend a simple, effective skincare routine that helps you get the most out of your treatment whilst minimising side effects.
