Key features
How it works
Prescription treatments
Dermatica’s core offering is prescriber-approved topical treatments delivered by post. After an online consultation the clinic issues bespoke prescriptions containing clinically active ingredients adjusted to skin type and tolerance. Treatments are supplied in labeled tubes or bottles with usage guidance and follow-up check-ins to adapt strength or regime as skin improves.
Targeted serums
Beyond prescription creams, Dermatica stocks concentrated serums for concerns such as pigmentation, fine lines and blemish-prone skin. These glass dropper bottles typically contain vitamin C, niacinamide or higher-strength acids and are positioned as supportive steps to accelerate results alongside prescribed actives.
Daily skincare basics
The shop also offers cleansers, moisturisers, sunscreens and eye care to build a full routine that protects results and reduces irritation. Emphasis is on non-comedogenic textures and barrier-friendly formulas that pair with stronger treatments so users can maintain skin health between prescription cycles.
