If you join the weight loss service and do not upload your verification images and 28 days elapses, no refund applies. 

Please note that returns or refunds are generally only accepted under specific conditions: in cases of dispensing errors, if the pen is found to be faulty upon receipt, if the customer is deemed ineligible for treatment, or if the customer experiences uncontrollable side effects.

Returns for reasons not related to these conditions, such as a change of mind, are not accepted once a prescription is ready to be created and dispensed. It is the customer’s responsibility to provide all necessary documentation, photographs, and returns. Refunds cannot be processed until these are received and verified.
