- Assess Effectiveness of the Treatment Using the Medicis Lip Fullness Scale (MLFS) [ Time Frame: 8 weeks after last injection ]The MLFS is a validated photograph-based outcome instrument that is designed specifically for quantifying lip fullness. Scoring of lip fullness (grades 0-5, with a higher score reflecting greater lip fullness) was based on visual live assessment by the Blinded Evaluator at defined time points, and not on a comparison to the baseline appearance. Effectiveness is defined as change from baseline at 8 weeks after last injection of New Dermal Filler or Dermal Filler (control).
- Assess Effectiveness of the New Dermal Filler Treatment in the Upper & Lower Lips Using the Medicis Lip Fullness Scale [ Time Frame: 16, 24, 32, 40, and 48 weeks after last injection ]The MLFS is a validated photograph-based outcome instrument that is designed specifically for quantifying lip fullness. Scoring of lip fullness (grades 0-5, with a higher score reflecting greater lip fullness) was based on visual live assessment by the Blinded Evaluator at defined time points, and not on a comparison to the baseline appearance. Effectiveness is defined as change from baseline at X weeks after last injection of New Dermal Filler.
- Assess Effectiveness of the New Dermal Filler Treatment in the Upper & Lower Lips Using the Medicis Lip Fullness Scale [ Time Frame: 16, 24, 32, 40, and 48 weeks ]Based on Response Rates (defined as at least 1 point improvement from baseline) after treatment with New Dermal Filler
- Assess Aesthetic Improvement in the Perioral Rhytids & Oral Commissures After New Dermal Filler Treatment Using the Wrinkle Assessment Scale (Change From Baseline, Blinded Evaluator) [ Time Frame: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, and 48 weeks after last injection ]Based on Change from Baseline, New Dermal Filler using WAS. Scoring of the upper perioral rhytids and oral commissures was based on visual live assessment by the Blinded Evaluator at defined time points, and not on a comparison to the baseline appearance. Scoring of fold severity was based on visual assessment of the length and apparent depth of the wrinkle at a certain time-point and measured on a 6-point scale, with 0 being no wrinkle and 5 being very deep wrinkle/redundant fold.
- Assess Aesthetic Improvement in the Perioral Rhytids & Oral Commissures After New Dermal Filler Treatment Using the Wrinkle Assessment Scale (Response Rates, Blinded Evaluator) [ Time Frame: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, and 48 weeks ]Based on Response Rates (defined as at least 1 point improvement from baseline), New Dermal Filler using WAS. Scoring of the upper perioral rhytids and oral commissures was based on visual live assessment by the Blinded Evaluator at defined time points, and not on a comparison to the baseline appearance. Scoring of fold severity was based on visual assessment of the length and apparent depth of the wrinkle at a certain time-point and measured on a 6-point scale, with 0 being no wrinkle and 5 being very deep wrinkle/redundant fold. .
- Assess Overall Aesthetic Improvement After New Dermal Filler Treatment Using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale Determined by Response Rates, Subject Assessment [ Time Frame: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, and 48 weeks ]Responders defined as at least "improved" (improved, much improved, very much improved) as assessed by subject, upper and lower lip combined, New Dermal Filler
- Assess Overall Aesthetic Improvement After New Dermal Filler Treatment Using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale, Treating Investigator [ Time Frame: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, and 48 weeks ]Determined by Response Rates, Treating Investigator Assessment, New Dermal Filler
- Assessment of Improvement in Lip Fullness After New Dermal Filler Treatment, by Independent Photographic Reviewer [ Time Frame: 8, 24, 40, and 48 weeks ]Proportion of Improvement (Responders) Based on Independent Photographic Reviewer Assessment by Weeks after Last Injection, New Dermal Filler
- Assess Subject Satisfaction With New Dermal Filler Treatment Using the FACE-Q [ Time Frame: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, and 48 weeks ]Subjects' satisfaction using the validated FACE-Q scales Satisfaction with Lips and Appraisal of Lines: Lips at baseline and at Week 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, and 48 weeks after last injection based on individual questions in each questionnaire as well as the Rasch transformed total scores and the change from baseline in the Rasch transformed scores. Rasch-transformed total score (0-100) according the FACE-Q manual; the higher total score indicated greater subject satisfaction.A positive change from baseline indicates an improvement. Baseline is defined as the last observation before initial treatment takes place at the baseline visit on Day 1.
- Evaluate All Reported Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 48 weeks ]
