Did you know that different types of acne need different healing ingredients? What about the fact that over the counter retinol should be your first step, but once you’ve used one or two containers of product, it’s time to level up with stronger retinol you can only get from a derm? My friends! Welcome to the world of online prescription skincare, a magical place where you can send in photos of your skin ailments, get evaluated by a real life dermatologist and then get your “cure” shipped directly to your door — all for much less than the cost of going into an actual doctor’s office.

Listen, doctors can complain all they want that online prescriptions are taking over their usual bread and butter, but IMO there’s absolutely no reason why me walking into a room and a doctor looking at my skin for four minutes should cost me nearly $300. Most insurance companies don’t even consider a yearly derm check to be necessary! But I digress… Nowadays, you can get just about any routine prescription prescribed online for a fraction of the cost, but that’s a post for another day.
Today we’re talking about the best places to get prescription skincare for anything that’s troubling you, like acne, dark spots, or even newly appearing fine lines and wrinkles. Here are our picks for the best places to check out if you want to cure your skincare concerns and save some cash at the same time.
