What is rosacea?

Common features include flushing, persistent redness, small red bumps or spots, and in some cases eye irritation.

How Nelford’s rosacea service works

1. 1
   Tell us what you need

   Complete a secure online consultation about your symptoms, health and any treatment you’ve tried. It’s free and you can start any time.

2. 2
   Same-day review by a UK-registered clinician

   Assessment includes a description and photo of your skin, your symptom pattern and triggers, and your general and skincare history. If anything else would help, the clinician will ask, or arrange a call or video consultation.

3. 3
   You choose

   If treatment is clinically appropriate, you receive your options with their benefits, risks and a clear price. You decide whether to go ahead.

4. 4
   We handle the rest

   Choose next-working-day delivery through our pharmacy partners, or your prescription by email. Nelford coordinates the next steps and any follow-up.

Information that helps

Having these to hand helps the clinician review your consultation quickly. If you don’t have something, you can still submit: the clinician will let you know if anything else is needed.

• A clear photo of your full face and a closer photo of the main affected area (required for a first rosacea consultation)
• How long you've had symptoms and what seems to trigger them
• Treatments you have already tried
• Photo ID, so your identity can be confirmed (if you are new to Nelford or your details have changed)
• Medicines you take now or have taken recently, and any allergies
• Relevant medical history and your GP's details
• Your contact details and address, so the clinic can reach you safely

After your consultation

Where appropriate, management may include trigger avoidance, skincare advice and, where clinically suitable, topical or oral treatment.

Follow-up is arranged to review how your skin is responding and adjust the approach if needed.

• Next-working-day delivery. Treatment confirmed before 4pm on a weekday is eligible for next-working-day delivery. Same-day options are available on request.
• Prescription sent by email. Receive your prescription electronically by email and use it at a pharmacy of your choice.
• Repeat treatment made simple. With a Nelford account you can request repeat treatment in a few steps, and a clinician reviews each request.

Every decision is made by a clinician together with you. The clinician may ask for more information, suggest a call or video consultation, or recommend another service if that would suit you better.

Cost, hours and delivery

• Your consultation is free. Your online consultation is free. You only pay if a clinician considers treatment appropriate and you choose to go ahead. You see a clear price for each option before you pay.
• Same-day review, 7 days a week from 7am to midnight.
• Next-working-day delivery when you order before 4pm on a weekday, with same-day options on request.
• If a clinician needs to speak with you by video or phone before deciding, a £19.40 booking fee applies. You see it before you book and can choose not to go ahead.

We work with multiple pharmacy partners to help keep treatment available. If we're unable to fulfil your medication order, we'll refund the medication and delivery costs and send your prescription electronically so you can arrange fulfilment elsewhere.
