- Mean change in wrinkle severity score from baseline to 24 weeks after final initial injection [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 weeks after final initial injection ]The wrinkle severity is measured by using a wrinkle severity rating scale with 1 being absent and 5 being extreme.
- Mean change in wrinkle severity score from baseline to 12 weeks after final initial injection [ Time Frame: Baseline to 12 weeks after final initial injection ]The wrinkle severity is measured by using a wrinkle severity rating scale with 1 being absent and 5 being extreme.
- Mean change in wrinkle severity score from baseline to 3 weeks after final initial injection [ Time Frame: Baseline to 3 weeks after final initial injection ]The wrinkle severity is measured by using a wrinkle severity rating scale with 1 being absent and 5 being extreme.
- Mean change in wrinkle severity score from baseline to 36 weeks after final initial injection [ Time Frame: Baseline to 36 weeks after final initial injection ]The wrinkle severity is measured by using a wrinkle severity rating scale with 1 being absent and 5 being extreme.
- Mean change in wrinkle severity score from baseline to 48 weeks after final initial injection [ Time Frame: Baseline to 48 weeks after final initial injection ]The wrinkle severity is measured by using a wrinkle severity rating scale with 1 being absent and 5 being extreme.
- Mean change in subject self assessment of wrinkle severity from baseline to 24 weeks after final initial injection [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 weeks after final initial injection ]The wrinkle severity is measured by using a wrinkle severity rating scale with 1 being absent and 5 being extreme.
- Comparison of pain assessment after initial injection (Baseline) [ Time Frame: Baseline ]Subject's pain as evaluated by the Numeric pain intensity scale. 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst possible pain. Pain is asssesed at Time 0 (the most severe pain during the initial injection), 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes and 24 hours after each injection session.
- Comparison of pain assessment after initial touch-up injection (3 weeks after initial injection) [ Time Frame: 3 weeks after initial injection ]Subject's pain as evaluated by the Numeric pain intensity scale. 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst possible pain. Pain is asssesed at Time 0 (the most severe pain during the initial touch-up injection), 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes and 24 hours after each injection session.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Senior) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- The subject is a male or female 18 years of age or older
- The subject has bilateral nasolabial folds that, in the opinion of both the Blinded Evaluating Investigator and the Unblinded Injecting Investigator, can be corrected with an injectable dermal implant
- The subject has the same Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) score of 3 or 4 (moderate or severe) for each nasolabial fold
Exclusion Criteria:
- The subject has active skin disease or inflammation on or near a nasolabial fold that, in the Principal Investigator's opinion, would interfere with the study device injections and/or study assessments.
- The subject has a history of sensitivity to hyaluronic acid
- The subject has a history of sensitivity to lidocaine or other amide type anesthetics
- The subject is, in the Principal Investigator's opinion, at undue risk based on the precautions, warnings and contraindications for local lidocaine anesthetics.
