What is acne?

What causes acne?

Acne can develop due to a combination of factors, including hormonal changes, excess oil production, blocked pores, certain medications, diet, stress, and genetics.

Am I eligible to receive an acne prescription online through InstantScripts?

Most adults in Australia experiencing acne symptoms can request support through InstantScripts. Final eligibility is determined by a licensed doctor.

How to get acne treatment online?

Start by completing a brief questionnaire about your symptoms. Then, you’ll have a secure video consultation with a licensed doctor who will determine whether treatment is clinically appropriate.

How long does it take to see improvement?

This depends on the treatment type and your skin’s response. Many people start to see improvement within several weeks, but consistency and follow-up care are important.

What if my treatment needs adjusting?

You can request a follow-up consultation with the same doctor to review your acne treatment and make any necessary changes.

Will my prescription be sent discreetly?

Yes. If approved, your acne script can be sent to your chosen pharmacy or securely delivered to your inbox or home—no need to collect it in person if you prefer privacy.

Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. It can result in whiteheads, blackheads, pimples or cysts, and often affects the face, chest, back or shoulders.
