- Desires cheek augmentation to correct volume deficit in the midface and is willing to receive sufficient volume to achieve at least a 1-point improvement on the MCFAS
- Skin or fat atrophy in the midfacial region other than that related to age.
- Subjects with body mass index of <18.5 or ≥30
- Acute inflammatory process or active infection at the injection site (e.g., acne, eczema, streptococcus infections), or history of chronic or recurrent infection or inflammation with the potential to interfere with the study results or increase the risk of AEs.
- Prior surgery, including midfacial plastic surgery, or has a permanent implant or graft in the midfacial region that could interfere with effectiveness assessments.
- Received midfacial region treatments with porcine-based collagen fillers or with RADIESSE® or with volumizing hyaluronic acid fillers such as but not limited to Juvéderm® Voluma, Restylane® Lyft within the past 24 months and/or with other HA fillers or mesotherapy within the past 12 months or plans to receive such treatments during participation in the study.
