Group Intervention Description Filler Hylenex Each subject will have one product in one forearm and another product in the other. Products: JUVEDERM Ultra Plus (24 mg/mL of HA) and VOLUMA (20 mg/mL of HA). Subjects will be randomized as to which forearm will receive which product. In one forearm, subject will receive four injections of the assigned HA filler (0.2mL). HA injections will be placed along a line from the wrist to the antecubital fossa. The initial 0.2mL HA injection will be placed in the deep dermis 5 cm from the wrist and the subsequent three 0.2mL HA injections will be place in 5 cm increments in the deep dermis along the line noted above. Same process will be used on the contralateral forearm using the other HA filler.1-3 hours post injection, these 8 HA injection sites (4 per forearm) per subject will then receive a randomized amount of Hylenex recombinant (0U, 30U, 60U or 75U).
