Group Intervention Description BELKYRA® and Juvéderm® VOLUMA™ with Lidocaine BELKYRA® BELKYRA® was injected into subcutaneous preplatysma fat tissue in the submental area (at least 1 plus up to 5 optional treatments, for maximum of 6 treatments 8 weeks apart). When the investigator and participant agreed that no further intervention was required to achieve the desired result, participants were eligible to receive VOLUMA™ treatment. VOLUMA™ was injected along the mandibular border, with an optional touch-up visit 2 weeks later if applicable.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants Who Showed ≥ 1-point Jawline Improvement From Baseline on the Allergan Loss of Jawline Definition Scale (ALJDS), as Assessed by the Investigator Baseline (Day 0) to Week 58 The ALJDS was an investigator assessment of loss of jawline definition measured by a 5-point scale where: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=extreme. Data is reported for both sides of the face, right side of the face and left side of the face.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Mean Change From Baseline to Last BELKYRA® Treatment on the ALJDS Baseline (Day 0) to Last Treatment (Up to Week 48) The ALJDS was an investigator and independent reviewer assessment of jawline contour measured by a 5-point scale where: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=extreme. A negative change from baseline indicated improvement. The data is reported for both sides of the face, right side of the face and left side of the face.
Mean Change From Baseline to Final Study Visit for Clinician-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (CR-SMFRS) Baseline (Day 0) to Week 58 The CR-SMFRS score was based on the investigator's clinical evaluation of the participant, where submental fullness was scored on a 5-point scale where: 0=absent, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, and 4=extreme. A negative change from baseline indicated improvement.
Mean Change From Baseline to Final Study Visit in the FACE-Q™ Appraisal of Neck Baseline (Day 0) to Week 58 The participant assessed satisfaction using the 10 items on the Appraisal of Neck module of the FACE-Q™ questionnaire measured on a 4-point scale where: 1=not at all, 2=a little, 3=moderately, 4=extremely. The Rasch transformed scale total score was 0 (worst) to 100 (best). A positive change from baseline indicated improvement.
Mean Change From Baseline to Final Study Visit in the FACE-Q™ Satisfaction With Lower Face and Jawline Score Baseline (Day 0) to Week 58 The participant assessed satisfaction using the 5 items on the Satisfaction of Lower Face and Jawline module of the FACE-Q™ questionnaire, measured on a 4-point scale where: 1=very dissatisfied, 2=somewhat dissatisfied, 3=somewhat satisfied, 4=very satisfied. The Rasch transformed scale total score was 0 (worst) to 100 (best). A positive change from baseline indicated improvement.
Mean Change From Baseline to Final Study Visit for Submental Skin Laxity Grade (SMSLG) Score Baseline (Day 0) to Week 58 The SMSLG scale integrated 3 skin features: skin wrinkling, adherence to underlying neck structures (bone and muscle), and redundancy (horizontal and vertical folds) assessed by the investigator using a 4-point scale where: 1=none, 2=mild, 3=moderate and 4=severe. A negative change from baseline indicated improvement.
Mean Change From Baseline to Final Study Visit for FACE-Q™ Appraisal of Area Under Chin Baseline (Day 0) to Week 58 The participant assessed satisfaction using the 5 items on the Appraisal of Area Under Chin module of the FACE-Q™ questionnaire measured on a 4-point scale where: 1=not at all, 2=a little, 3=moderately, 4=extremely. The Rasch transformed scale total score was 0 (worst) to 100 (best). A negative change from baseline indicated worsening.
Mean Change From Baseline to Final Study Visit for Patient-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (PR-SMFRS) Baseline (Day 0) to Week 58 The PR-SMFRS was based on the participant's response to the question "How much fat do you have under your chin right now?" and answered on a 5-point ordinal scale where: 0=no chin fat at all, 1=a slight amount of chin fat, 2=a moderate amount of chin fat, 3=a large amount of chin fat, and 4=a very large amount of chin fat. A negative change from baseline indicated improvement.
Mean Change From Baseline to Final Study Visit in Jawline Definition, Based on Independent Reviewer Assessment Using the ALJDS and Photographic Images Baseline (Day 0) to Week 58 The independent reviewer used photographic images collected at the time of the participant's live visit and the ALJDS to assess of loss of jawline definition using a 5-point scale where: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=extreme. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.
