Group Intervention Description JUVÉDERM® VOLITE™ JUVÉDERM VOLITE™ XC Participants received an initial treatment of JUVÉDERM® VOLITE™ XC injectable gel, intradermally up to 4 milliliters (mL) on Day 1 followed by an optional touch-up treatment up to 2 mL on Day 30, if applicable. Participants were eligible to receive repeat treatment up to 4 mL at Month 6, if applicable. Control Group: No Treatment Then Optional JUVÉDERM® VOLITE™ JUVÉDERM VOLITE™ XC Participants received no treatment for up to 30 days and then received an optional JUVÉDERM® VOLITE™ XC injectable gel initial treatment intradermally up to 4 mLs and an optional touch-up treatment up to 2 mL 30 days later, if applicable.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants With at Least 1-point Improvement (Decrease) From Baseline on the Allergan Cheek Smoothness Scale (ACSS) on Both Cheeks at Month 1 Baseline to Month 1 The ACSS is a validated 5-point ordinal scale developed by Allergan to grade the severity of skin smoothness on the cheeks. The score ranges from 0 (smooth visual skin texture) to 4 (extremely coarse visual skin texture, crosshatched deep creases, extreme elastosis. Responders are participants with at least 1-point improvement (decrease) from baseline on the ACSS on both cheeks based on evaluating investigator (EI) assessment. Baseline is the last non-missing EI assessment on or before the latter of randomization date or first study treatment date in the control period. The multiple imputation method for the missing data imputation was used for analysis.
Number of Participants Who Experience One or More Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) From first dose of study treatment until 30 days following last dose of study treatment (up to approximately 12 months) An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical device which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. The investigator assesses the relationship of each event to the use of study device. An AE was considered a treatment emergent adverse event (TEAE) if the AE began or worsened (increased in severity or became serious) after first administration of VOLITE for the treatment group and after the date of randomization for the control group.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants With at Least 1-Point Improvement (Decreased) From Baseline on Both Cheeks in the Allergan Fine Lines Scale (AFLS) Response at Month 1 Baseline to Month 1 The AFLS is a validated 5-point ordinal scale developed by Allergan to grade the severity of fine lines on the cheeks. The score ranges from 0 (no fine lines) to 4 (diffuse superficial lines, crosshatching). Responders are participants with at least 1-point improvement (decrease) from baseline on the AFLS on both cheeks based on observed data of EI assessment. Baseline is the last non-missing EI assessment on or before the latter of randomization date or first study treatment date in the control period.
Change From Baseline in Face-Q Satisfaction With Skin Questionnaire at Month 1 Baseline and Month 1 The participant assessed satisfaction using the 12 items on the FACE-Q: Satisfaction with Skin questionnaire measured on a 4-point scale where 1=very dissatisfied, 2=somewhat dissatisfied, 3=somewhat satisfied, 4=very satisfied. The responses to the 12 items were summed and converted to a scale score that ranges from 0 (worst) to 100 (best). Higher score indicates more satisfaction. A positive change from baseline indicates improvement.
