Tretinoin prescription in Scotland

3 replies

Hi. Does anyone have a recommendation for a cosmetic dermatologist in Scotland (preferably in the West) that I can see for a prescription for tretinoin cream for ageing? Most dermatologists seem to be in London.

Have you heard of dermatica ? They're an online dermatologist company that can prescribe it. You do a consultation and upload pics and they then post it out. I was dubious at first but it's great (and much cheaper than seeing someone in person!)

Dermatica are good if you know what you want - definitely worth looking into!

Thanks for the recommendation-it does look good. I'll probably order from here in the future but have a couple of issues. I currently buy tretinoin cream whenever I go to Spain on holiday so I'm ok for supplies. I use the 0.05% cream currently most nights but if I buy from Dermatica it looks as if I need to get the 0.25% first.
Also I feel as it's a prescription only medicine in the UK I should really use this under a dermatologist's care for any advice needed. However it looks as if that's not easy to arrange if you stay outwith London!
Thanks for the info anyway. I'll certainly use this if I run out before I go back to Spain.
