Refund policy

(Local and International) Last Updated: February 24, 2026

At Derma Roller Philippines (the ‘Company’), product safety and customer satisfaction matter. Because we sell hygiene-sensitive skincare and microneedling-related items, we follow a strict return, refund, shipping, and warranty policy to protect both parties

By purchasing from us, you agree to the terms below. For international shipments affected by customs restrictions, return-to-sender, refusal, or abandoned parcels, refunds and resolutions follow the Shipping Policy.

1. No Return and No Change of Mind

For hygiene and safety reasons, we do not accept returns for change of mind, wrong choice, or buyer’s remorse once an order is confirmed.

This applies especially to:

  • Skincare products that have been opened, used, or tampered with

  • Any microneedling-related items that have been opened or used (including cartridges and needle consumables)

Exceptions apply only for:

  • Verified factory defects

  • Wrong item sent by our team

  • Missing item due to our packing error

  • Item damaged in transit (subject to proof and courier investigation)

2. Required Proof for Claims (Strict)

To protect customers from fraud and ensure fast resolution, the following proof is required for claims involving missing items, wrong items, damage, or defects:

  • Unboxing video (continuous, uncut) starting from the sealed pouch or box, showing the shipping label up to full product reveal.

  •  Edited, cut, or incomplete videos may result in claim denial.

  • Clear photos of the issue (defect, damage, wrong item)

  • Order number and proof of purchase

  • Geotagged photo or location verification may be requested for delivery-related claims.

Claims without the required proof may be denied.

3. Claim Window

  • Claims must be filed within 48 hours from the time the parcel is marked delivered or received.

  • Claims filed after this window may not be eligible for replacement, warranty support, or refund.

4. Product Inspection and Quality Control

All products are inspected before dispatch. However, if an issue is confirmed to be our responsibility, we will provide a replacement or refund based on availability and assessment.

5. Replacement Policy

A replacement may be approved if:

  • The product is confirmed to have a factory defect, or

  • The wrong item was sent, or

  • An item is missing due to packing error, or

  • The item arrived damaged (subject to courier validation)

Conditions:

  • The item must be unused, with complete inclusions, and in original packaging (when return is required)

  • We may request return of the item for verification before replacement

Local Orders:

  • If verified as our fault, we shoulder the replacement shipping.

International Orders:

  • Replacement shipping fees may apply depending on location and investigation results.

  • If verified as our fault, we will provide the best available resolution, which may include replacement support or partial or full refund, depending on the case and feasibility.

6. Refund Eligibility

Refunds are granted only under these circumstances:

  • The product is verified defective and cannot be replaced due to stock unavailability, or

  • A confirmed fulfillment error by our team requires a refund resolution

Refunds are not granted for:

  • Change of mind after order confirmation

  • Incorrect use, mishandling, or failure to follow instructions

  • Skin reactions due to individual sensitivity or contraindications

  • Courier delays or failed delivery due to an incomplete or incorrect address

  • Claims submitted outside the claim window or without the required proof

7. Return Process (When Return is Required)

If a return is requested for verification:

  • We will provide instructions and the return address

  • Returned items must be unused, complete, and in original packaging

  • Returns that arrive incomplete, used, or tampered with may be rejected

8. Damaged or Lost Parcels (Courier Handling)

For parcels marked damaged or lost in transit:

  • We will assist in coordinating courier investigation and documentation where applicable

  • Resolution depends on courier findings and the submitted proof (including unboxing video)

9. Refund Processing Time

  • Approved refunds are processed within 15 to 30 business days after approval (excluding bank or payment provider processing times). Complex cases may take longer due to courier/platform investigations.

  • Refunds are issued via the original payment method when possible. For Cash on Delivery orders, refunds may be processed via bank transfer or store credit, depending on the case.

10. Marketplace Orders (Shopee, Lazada, TikTok Shop)

Orders placed through Shopee, Lazada, or TikTok Shop follow the platform’s return, refund, and dispute policies, timelines, and resolution process. Customers must file and process requests directly through the respective platform support or order center.

  • To protect customers and prevent fraudulent claims, the Company may require supporting proof such as an unboxing video, photos, and complete order details. If a claim is incomplete, inconsistent, filed outside platform rules, or does not meet the policy requirements, the Company may reject the request and submit a response, counter-evidence, or counter-claim through the platform’s dispute process where applicable.

  • Platform-approved refunds may still require return of the item when the platform requests it. If the platform requires a return and the customer fails or refuses to return the item, the Company may contest the claim through the platform dispute process.

  • For warranty support after the platform return window, customers may contact the Company directly with their platform order reference number and proof of purchase. Warranty evaluation will follow this policy and may require troubleshooting steps, verification, and supporting proof.

The Company reserves the right to take appropriate action against fraudulent claims, including submitting evidence to the platform, canceling future orders, and pursuing remedies available under applicable Philippine law.

11. Cancellation Policy

  • Paid orders cannot be canceled once processed or dispatched.

  • For unpaid orders, cancellation requests must be made as soon as possible. Approval depends on processing status.

  • Shipping responsibility may vary depending on the case and location. The Company will confirm the process after assessment.

14. Shipping-Related Acknowledgment (Affects Refund Eligibility)

  • Tracking updates provided by the courier are the primary reference for shipment status.

  • If a parcel is returned to the sender, refused, abandoned, or not released due to customs issues, non-payment of duties, incorrect address, or lack of customer response, the order may not qualify for a full refund and may be subject to outbound and return shipping charges.

Paid orders are considered confirmed and may only be canceled before the order is packed or dispatched.

If a cancellation request is made before packing/dispatch, the Company may review the request, but approval is not guaranteed.

If the order has already been packed, dispatched, or assigned a tracking number, cancellation is no longer allowed and the Shipping and Refund Policies apply.

C3. Order Changes and Address Corrections

Requests to modify items, quantities, or shipping details must be submitted as soon as possible and are only possible before packing/dispatch.

Requests submitted after the order is packed or dispatched may be denied.

The customer is responsible for providing accurate shipping details at checkout.

C4. Cash on Delivery (COD) and Failed Delivery

For COD orders, customers must be available to receive and pay for the parcel upon delivery.

The Company reserves the right to cancel or hold orders flagged as fraudulent, bogus, abusive, or high-risk, including cases that require identity or payment verification. These actions are taken to protect the Company and customers.

C8. Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

Customers agree to contact the Company through official support channels first to attempt resolution before filing any chargeback, payment reversal, or “unauthorized transaction” dispute.

If a chargeback or dispute is filed, the Company reserves the right to submit evidence to the payment provider or platform, including order details, customer communications, packing records, delivery confirmations, courier tracking, and any proof required under Company policies.

Accounts associated with repeated chargebacks, dispute abuse, or fraudulent claims may be restricted from future transactions.
