About Shipping

 

How to check that my order has been shipped?

  • Once your order has been shipped, you will receive a shipping confirmation email that contains tracking information. You can also login to your account at any time to see the current status of your order.

Do you ship internationally?

  • Dermava only ships to domestic U.S. We do not take international orders.

When will my order arrive?

  • Most orders are processed and shipped out within one business day after your order is received. As soon as your order is processed and the label has been printed for shipping, you will receive an email with your order number and tracking number (if available). Your tracking information will update within 1-3 business days after your order has been picked up by the carrier.

My package hasn't arrived. What should I do?

  • If you do not receive your order in a timely manner or tracking shows it is lost you must let us know so that we can do our part to assist you in this matter. The carriers do not contact us to let us know that these orders are lost in transit. During the COVID pandemic shipping carriers are having many issues with delivery timelines. We do our best but once in carriers hands we are in a tough position.

If I paid for expedited shipping and received the wrong product, do I get a refund on my shipping?

  • If we ship your order out on time and you receive it on time but receive the wrong item we will ship the correct product out expedited and send a return label.

I input the wrong shipping address. What happens now?

  • A $15.00 fee may apply for the incorrect shipping address. This is what USPS and FedEx will charge us to have it redirected to the correct address. This is a rare occurrence and we will do our best to contact the customer before we ship the package if the address is questionable.

How long can I take to let you know my order is missing or damaged?

  • You have up to 5 business days after you receive your package to notify us of any damaged product(s) or if there are any products missing from your order. 

I am having trouble with tracking. What should I do?

  • In most cases, the carrier takes 1-3 business days to register your shipment status. If your tracking number isn’t updating or working at all, please reach out to us as soon as you can.
