Understanding Your Skin: Common Concerns & Symptoms

Feeling frustrated with your skin is common, but you don't have to figure it out alone. Whether you're dealing with a sudden breakout or the gradual signs of aging, our telehealth skin doctors are here to provide clarity. An online doctor can diagnose your skin condition and get you started on effective treatment.

Common concerns we address via our Online Skin Consultation include:

  • Acne & Breakouts: From persistent pimples and blackheads to more severe cystic acne. If you're looking for the best online doctor for adult acne in Australia or need to start a new acne treatment, a consultation can provide access to prescription-strength solutions.
  • Pigmentation & Uneven Tone: This includes sun spots, dark spots (hyperpigmentation), and a generally uneven or blotchy complexion. Our doctors can help you with a telehealth consultation for skin pigmentation to achieve a brighter, more even skin tone.
  • Aging, Wrinkles & Dullness: Concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, and skin that has lost its radiance or "glow". We can provide an online anti-wrinkle prescription Australia-wide, and our doctors can discuss proven treatments like Tretinoin to help you achieve your skin goals.

For severe flare-ups, like cystic acne, that may require you to take time off work or study, our doctors can also provide a medical certificate.

While recognising these symptoms is a good first step, a professional diagnosis is key to effective treatment. Don't guess—talk to an online doctor for skin who can create a safe, personalised plan for you.

Whether you want to start using topical retinol, also known as tretinoin, as part of your skincare regimen or to treat a specific concern, our doctors can conduct a comprehensive consultation before issuing a tretinoin e-script to your mobile. You can also renew your tretinoin prescription online if you have been using it and it has been effective for your concerns.

Can I get UTI antibiotics without seeing the doctor in person?

Absolutely, our doctors can assess your symptoms over the phone and issue UTI antibiotics as an e-script if clinically appropriate.
