Inclusion criteria

* Subjects intent to undergo facial filler treatment for either volume loss or contouring * Subjects requiring treatment in two to four of pre-defined areas in the face (upper cheeks, nasolabial folds, temples, nose and chin) * Require 3-5 ml of investigational products to achieve a clinically meaningful improvement in appearance * Facial appearance as Han Chinese * Non-pregnant, non-breast feeding female * Signed informed consent

Exclusion criteria

* Previous facial surgery (e.g. rhinoplasty) or permanent implant in the area to be treated. * History of chronic sinusitis or rhinitis (only applicable for subjects injected in the nose). * Subjects who needs to use heavy glasses during the study (only applicable for subjects injected in the nose). * Previous tissue augmenting therapy or contouring with permanent filler or fat injection in the facial area. * Previous treatment with Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers or Restylane Skinboosters in the facial area within 12 months before treatment. * Previous treatment with non-HA fillers such as CaHA (Calcium Hydroxylapatite) or PLLA (Poly L-Lactic Acid) within 24 months before treatment. * Previous revitalization with neurotoxin in the facial area within six (6) months before treatment. * Previous tissue revitalization treatment with laser or light, mesotherapy, chemical peeling or dermabrasion in the facial area within six (6) months before treatment. * Any medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for inclusion (e.g. a chronic, relapsing or hereditary disease that may interfere with the outcome of the study).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants Improved in Global Facial Aesthetic Appearance - Judged by Participant6 MonthsNumber of improved participants according to Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) 6 months after initial treatment. The GAIS is a qualitative 5-graded scale evaluating aesthetic improvement: Very much improved, Much improved, Improved, No change, Worse. A participant is considered improved if she answers Very much improved, Much improved, or Improved.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants Improved in Nasolabial Fold Severity (Merz Aesthetic Scale) - Judged by Investigator6 and 12 Months after first and second treatment, respectivelyThe Merz aesthetic scale for nasolabial folds (NLFs) is a validated photograph-based outcome instrument designed specifically for assessment of NLFs. The scale is graded 0-4 where 0 is No folds and 4 is Very severe folds. A participant is considered improved if she scores at least one grade improvement from baseline.
Percentage of Participants Improved in Upper Cheek Fullness - Judged by Investigator6 and 12 Months after first and second treatment, respectivelyThe Merz aesthetic scale for upper cheek fullness is a validated photograph-based outcome instrument designed specifically for assessing cheek fullness. The scale is graded 0-4 where 0 is Full upper cheek and 4 is Very severely sunken upper cheek. A participant is assessed as improved if she scores at least one grade improvement from baseline.
