April 2015: A class-action lawsuit was filed against Reviva Labs, Inc. for allegedly misleadingly marketing its “Stem Cell Booster Serum with Swiss Apple Stem Cells” a/k/a “Stem Cell Booster Serum #310” as a revolutionary and “almost magical” anti-aging extract. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the company misleadingly markets the product and its ingredients as providing a variety of anti-aging benefits when, in reality, the serum has no effect on the skin’s epidermis cells and the ingredients cannot provide any anti-aging benefits. (The epidermis is the outer layer of the skin.)
