ReFa authorized warranty services do not apply to these counterfeit products or to parallel import products, and may even entail risks such as quality problems. The following information will help you make informed decisions about your purchase. Please always make sure you find your ReFa products at an authorized retailer or wholesaler.

How to identify counterfeit ReFa
Design & Packaging
It is very difficult to distinguish a genuine ReFa product from a counterfeit based on the outer packaging. For your safety, we ask that you please purchase genuine ReFa product from our authorized dealers.
Confirm the platinum coating
It may be difficult to see the difference, but a genuine ReFa roller is coated completely with a high quality platinum coating. Counterfeit product rollers are not completely coated by platinum and may result in allergic reactions due to coating with other metals or adulterated platinum.
Counterfeit control
These are some examples of counterfeits discovered at customs.

- Counterfeit products often do not produce microcurrent.
- Check the handle and roller parts. If there are openings or cracks in the handle or roller where water can enter, it is a counterfeit.
