Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change From Baseline in Mid-Face Volume Deficit Scale (MFVDS) Score [Baseline (Screening) to Month 1]

    The evaluating investigator (EI) assessed the participant's overall mid-face volume deficit for each cheek using a 6-point photonumeric scale, where: 0=None (moon face; fullness) [best] to 5=Severe (wasting) [worst]. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of Participants With at Least a 1-Point Improvement (Decrease From Baseline) in MFVDS Score [Baseline (Screening) to Month 1]

    The EI assessed the participant's overall mid-face volume deficit for each cheek using a 6-point photonumeric scale, where: 0=None (moon face; fullness) [best] to 5=Severe (wasting) [worst]. The percentage of participants who showed ≥1-point improvement (decrease in severity) from Baseline is reported.

  2. Change From Baseline in FACE-Q Satisfaction With Cheeks Questionnaire Score [Baseline (Screening) to Month 1]

    The participant completed the 5-item Satisfaction with Cheeks module of the FACE-Q questionnaire that evaluated various aspects of the cheeks including symmetry, smoothness, attractiveness, contour, and fullness using a 4-point scale where: 1=very dissatisfied to 4=very satisfied. The total score was transformed to a 0 to 100 point scale, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement. The FACE-Q Satisfaction with Cheeks outcome was assessed by the participant overall and not by each cheek.

  3. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) [Up to 3 months]

    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. A TEAE is defined as an AE that initially occurred or increased in severity on or after the treatment start date.
