We use telemedicine technology to connect you with a licensed healthcare professional to provide nightly defense for skincare conveniently and affordably.

It starts with your online visit. The healthcare professional needs to know about your general health and your skincare concerns.

They also need an unedited photo of you and your ID (that shows your picture and birthdate) so they know who they will be helping. A photo of your face is also helpful to evaluate your skin. They review everything, determine if you're a candidate for telemedicine and whether treatment is right for you, and if so, they will send you a personalized treatment plan.

Their treatment plan will include a great deal of information about skincare. It is important that you take the time to read it all to be informed and better prepared to take care of your skin.

If you qualify, your healthcare professional will prescribe the right course of treatment to help you take control of your skincare.

If appropriate, a doctor or nurse practitioner will prescribe a skincare treatment with active ingredients to address your specific skin concerns. If prescribed, you will receive information on ingredients and use in your personalized treatment plan.

The prescription skincare treatment recommended for you may be incorporated into your usual skincare regimen. If you are using other topical prescription medications, make sure to tell your doctor or nurse practitioner.

That being said, prescription skincare can make skin more sensitive, so we offer our own doctor-selected skincare products to complement your treatment: our gentle Antioxidant Face Cleanser and protective Weightless Face Moisturizer SPF 28.

The timing of the effects of your treatment will be dependent on many factors, including your specific skincare goals (e.g. reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, helping prevent wrinkles, reducing redness, etc.), how severe your symptoms are, how well you tolerate the treatment, and others. It is also important to understand that for certain treatments, your skin may appear worse before it gets better. Depending on the treatment you are prescribed, you will receive detailed information on the formulation and what to expect.

Many people have acne, but it can be a frustrating condition to live with. Clearing up the skin and reducing painful inflammation is a goal for many who suffer from acne. Luckily, there are many different treatments for acne, ranging from over-the-counter topical treatments like benzoyl peroxide, to prescription topical or oral antibiotics, to vitamin A compounds called retinoids.

Research shows that a combination of treatments-rather than any single treatment alone-may be more effective at addressing the different features of acne. That's why, if you are prescribed Nightly Defense for acne, your formulation will include two anti-acne powerhouses: tretinoin and azelaic acid. Tretinoin is a retinoid medication that increases the turnover of skin cells, opening pores and releasing bacteria and other irritants that may be trapped inside. And azelaic acid fights inflammation and reduces the growth of bacteria that contribute to acne.

Acne, in part, is caused by a bacteria called Cutibacterium acnes (formerly Propionibacterium acnes). Because of this, topical or oral antibiotics are sometimes used for the treatment of acne. However, there is growing public health concern over the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are bacteria that have evolved in a way that makes them harder to treat with certain antibiotics. The over-prescription of antibiotics in society is partly what contributes to antibiotic resistance. Therefore, antibiotics should only be used when necessary.

Instead of topical antibiotics, one of the possible ingredients in Nightly Defense skincare is azelaic acid. Azelaic acid is not an antibiotic, but it does have antibacterial properties and is able to help stop the growth of acne-causing bacteria. This makes it a good treatment choice for acne Important Safety Information.
