Fine lines and sun damage, assessed by a prescriber
Skin changes with time and sun. If you want a medical opinion on yours, send a short questionnaire and photos for an independent licensed prescriber to review.
A prescription is never guaranteed. Your prescriber decides what is appropriate.

Understanding fine lines and sun damage
What is happening
Years of sun exposure change the skin: fine lines, rougher texture, uneven tone and less firmness. Dermatologists call this photoaging.
What can drive it
Ultraviolet light is the main driver. Smoking, genetics and skin type also affect how early and how much skin changes.
When to get it assessed
Any time you would like a prescriber’s opinion on options beyond what is on the shelf. Daily sun protection is the starting point for everyone.

- 3

An independent prescriber licensed in your province reviews your questionnaire and decides whether a prescription is right for you.
- 4
M1 Pharmacy fills it
If something is prescribed, M1 Pharmacy prepares it, a pharmacist checks it, and it ships to you. You see the price first.
What your prescriber will ask about
- What you have noticed and what matters most to you
- Your sun exposure and sun protection
- Products you use now and how your skin tolerates them
- Pregnancy, breastfeeding or plans for either
- Clear photos in natural light
The pharmacist consultation is free. A $30 prescriber fee covers the independent review of your questionnaire. It is waived when you have valid refills on file and a new review isn’t needed. Medication is priced by the pharmacy and shown to you before you pay.
Start your assessmentQuestions
It is a medical assessment. An independent licensed prescriber reviews your skin and history and decides whether a prescription is appropriate for you.
Not necessarily. Your prescriber decides what is appropriate. A prescription is never guaranteed.
A mole or spot that is changing, bleeding or looks different from the others should be checked in person by a doctor. This service is not a skin cancer check.
