Answer a few questions
Simple, confidential questions about your case. Takes no more than 5 minutes.
In the Algarve, dermatology provision is concentrated on the coast and demand is seasonal — in summer, schedules are completely saturated. MyDermaCare lets you resolve your case online, with dermatologists in Portugal, on average within 24 working hours.

Each case reaches the dermatologist already prepared with photographs, history and questionnaire answers. Choose to receive the report in under 24 hours or speak with the dermatologist via a booked appointment.
If you have questions about the report or recommended treatment plan, you can speak directly with your dermatologist through the patient area.
Patients supported
Centro Hospitalar do Algarve handles public care and coastal private clinics are overcrowded — especially between June and September. Inland Algarve provision is even scarcer. Online consultation restores access: any patient in the region submits and receives assessment.
Both start with a clinical questionnaire and 3 photographs, without waiting months for an appointment. What differs is how the dermatologist responds.
In writing, no appointment

What it adds is live time: the dermatologist reviews your photographs before the call, so the consultation is for your questions. Afterwards you receive the same written report as the Flexible consultation.

Common questions about online dermatology consultations.
Yes. The whole Faro district — Algarve coast and inland — has access to online consultation, including the west, east and serra.
Yes. The consultation works for any patient in Portuguese territory, with or without an NHS user number. When issued, the electronic prescription requires a user number for collection at a Portuguese pharmacy.
You answer a short clinical questionnaire (5 min) and send 3 photographs of the affected area. A dermatologist registered with the Portuguese Medical Association reviews your case and emails a report with a diagnosis or clinical hypotheses and a personalised treatment plan.
From 60€ on the Essential plan (response within 5 working days). There are also Priority (75€, response within 48 working hours) and Urgent (100€, response within 24 hours including weekends). See all details at /precos.
If you have warning signs — active bleeding, a wound that has not healed for more than 3 weeks, or a mole changing very quickly — seek urgent in-person care.
