Azficel-T, sold under the brand name Laviv, is a cell therapy product used to treat moderate to severe nasolabial fold wrinkles (the lines running from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth) in adults.[1]

The treatment is autologous, meaning it uses the patient’s own cells. Specifically, fibroblasts—cells involved in skin structure and repair—are extracted from a small skin sample, cultured in a laboratory to increase their number, and then re-injected into the patient’s skin to improve appearance.[2]

Azficel-T was approved for medical use in the United States in June 2011.[2]
