Who reviews your case
Every request through orva is assessed by a Swiss board-certified dermatologist, usually within 1 to 2 business days. Whether a treatment suits you, and which one, is always the doctor's decision.

What your doctor does for you
orva itself gives no medical recommendations, and no algorithm has a say. The decision always rests with your doctor.
They review your case
Once your answers and photos are complete, they review your case. If anything is missing, you get a follow-up question in the portal.
They decide
If a treatment is medically right for you, the doctor issues a prescription. If not, you learn why.
If no treatment fits you, we refund the full CHF 99.–.
They stay reachable
While your treatment runs, you write in the portal directly to the doctor in charge of it. For your account, invoices and delivery, the care team helps you.
The same care as in a practice
