About acne and rosacea
What is acne?
Acne is one of the most common skin conditions. It occurs when pilosebaceous follicles become blocked and inflamed, causing spots, blackheads and inflammatory lesions — mainly on the face, back and chest. It mainly affects teenagers but is also common in adults.
What is rosacea?
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition mainly affecting the central face — cheeks, nose, forehead and chin. It flares intermittently and is more common in fair, sensitive skin, with persistent redness, visible vessels and flushing episodes.
Common signs
In acne: comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), papules and pustules, oily skin and, in persistent cases, nodules and scars. In rosacea: persistent redness or flushing, small visible vessels, papules and burning or reactive skin — often triggered by sun, heat, alcohol or spicy food.
How we can help
Send photographs of affected areas and complete the clinical questionnaire. A dermatologist distinguishes the picture — acne, rosacea or overlap — and defines a personalised treatment plan with post-consultation follow-up.
Which consultation is right for me?
Both start with a clinical questionnaire and 3 photographs, without waiting months for an appointment. What differs is how the dermatologist responds.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about online dermatology consultations
Complete a medical questionnaire and send 3 photos of your skin concern. A dermatologist reviews your case and sends a detailed clinical report within the timeframe of the plan you choose. If clinically justified, the report includes an electronic prescription.
For most skin concerns, assessment via photographs and a clinical questionnaire allows the dermatologist to define a treatment plan. Some situations, such as assessing moles (nevi), may require in-person observation or further tests such as dermoscopy. In that case, the dermatologist will state this in the report and recommend an in-person consultation.
Online dermatology consultations start at 60€. This includes assessment by a dermatologist, the medical report and a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
