Hims Prescription Skincare Review

Evaluation Process

To evaluate your skincare needs, Forhims.com provides a questionnaire that covers the issues you're experiencing, your goals for seeking treatment, and your general health. You'll be asked to list any medications you're taking, whether you've had any surgeries, and whether you have any chronic conditions. You'll also be asked to upload a photo of yourself that will be used to diagnose your skin condition and inform a recommended treatment plan. It's a simple process and only takes a few minutes.

Prescription Medication and Non-Prescription Options

Forhims.com offers both prescription and what they term "prescription strength" treatment for skin issues. Prescription-strength formulae may contain the active ingredients found in prescription creams and serums. To order a prescription anti-aging cream or non-prescription customized acne cream, you will need to complete a questionnaire and subscribe to a plan. Other products, including a daily moisturizer, a vitamin C-based serum, and a nighttime wrinkle cream, may be purchased without completing an online evaluation or committing to more than a one-month supply.

Price and Convenience

If you're seeking treatment for acne or to combat premature aging, Forhims.com will interpret the information you provide through a skincare evaluation form and recommend a treatment plan free of charge. Topical creams are customized depending on the issues you report and the sensitivity of your skin. Patients then sign up for a product subscription. Subscription lengths of two, six, or twelve months are available. The company has an introductory offer currently and will provide your first two months of treatment for $10 per month. Regular prices vary, depending on the subscription length you choose: the longer the subscription you choose, the more you'll save on the products you receive.

Other general skincare products are available for purchase month to month without an evaluation. Forhims.com offers the convenience of having products shipped directly to your door. You can order a one month supply or commit to monthly purchases to save a few dollars off each order.
