- 2-level Composite Responders for the Target Buttock [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]Number of of 2-level Clinician-Reported Photonumeric Cellulite Severity Scale (CR-PCSS) / Patient-Reported Photonumeric Cellulite Severity Scale (PR-PCSS) composite responders in the target buttock at Day 71. CR-PCSS and PR-PCSS is a 5-level scale ranging from "0" (None) to "4" (Severe). A participant who missed one or two assessments of CR-PCSS and PR-PCSS at Day 71 was defined as a non-responder. A 2-level composite responder is defined as a participant with an improvement from baseline of at least 2-levels of severity in the CR-PCSS and an improvement from baseline of at least 2-levels of severity in the PR-PCSS of the target buttock.
- 1-level PR-PCSS Responders of the Target Buttock [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]Improvement in cellulite severity of the Target Buttock from baseline of at least 1-level of severity in Patient-Reported Photonumeric Cellulite Severity Scale (PR-PCSS). PR-PCSS is a 5-level scale ranging from "0" (None) to "4" (Severe).
- 2-level PR-PCSS Responders of the Target Buttock [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]Improvement in cellulite severity of the Target Buttock from baseline of at least 2-level of severity in Patient-Reported Photonumeric Cellulite Severity Scale (PR-PCSS). PR-PCSS is a 5-level scale ranging from "0" (None) to "4" (Severe).
- 1-level Composite Responders of the Target Buttock [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]Improvement in cellulite severity of the Target Buttock from baseline of at least 1-level of severity in Patient-Reported Photonumeric Cellulite Severity Scale (PR-PCSS) / Clinician-Reported Photonumeric Cellulite Severity Scale (CR-PCSS). PR-PCSS and CR-PCSS is a 5-level scale ranging from "0" (None) to "4" (Severe).
- 2-level Composite Responder of the Non-target Buttock [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]Improvement in cellulite severity of the Non-target Buttock from baseline of at least 2-levels of severity in Patient-Reported Photonumeric Cellulite Severity Scale (PR-PCSS) / Clinician-Reported Photonumeric Cellulite Severity Scale (CR-PCSS). PR-PCSS and CR-PCSS is a 5-level scale ranging from "0" (None) to "4" (Severe).
- 1-level SSRS Responders [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]Subject Self-Rating Scale (SSRS) is a measure that assesses participant satisfaction with appearance in association with cellulite on the buttocks using whole numbers on a 7-level scale that ranges from "0" (Extremely Dissatisfied) to "6" (Extremely Satisfied). A 1-level SSRS responder is defined as a participant who is at least slightly satisfied (Slightly Satisfied [4], Very Satisfied [5], or Extremely Satisfied [6]) with the appearance of the cellulite on her buttocks at Day 71.
- Change From Baseline in PR-CIS Total Score [ Time Frame: 71 Days ]Patient Reported Cellulite Impact Scale (PR-CIS) is a 6-item static questionnaire, each item is answered by a participant on a 11-level numerical rating scale that ranges from "0" (Not at all) to "10" (Extremely). The PR-CIS total score is the sum of individual item scores and can range from "0" to "60" with higher numbers reflecting a more negative impact from the cellulite. A responder was defined as a participant with a reduction in the PR-CIS total score of at least 12 from baseline at an evaluation time point. A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement in cellulite severity.
- 1-level S-GAIS Responders of Target Buttock [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]Subject Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (S-GAIS) is a measure that assesses participant rating of cellulite appearance after treatment. This scale has 7-levels ranging from "+3" (Very Much Improved) to "-3" (Very Much Worse). Responders are defined as participants with at least ≥ 1-level improvement (Improved, Much Improved or Very Much Improved) in S-GAIS assessment of the Target Buttock.
- 2-level S-GAIS Responders of Target Buttock [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]Subject Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (S-GAIS) is a measure that assesses participant rating of cellulite appearance after treatment. This scale has 7-levels ranging from "+3" (Very Much Improved) to "-3" (Very Much Worse). Responders are defined as participants with at least ≥ 2-level improvement (Much Improved or Very Much Improved) in S-GAIS assessment of the Target Buttock.
- PR-PCSS Rating for the Target and Non-target Buttock by Visit [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Day 71 ]The Patient-Reported Photonumeric Cellulite Severity Scale (PR-PCSS) is a 5-level photonumeric scale used by the patient (participant) to assess the severity of the participant's cellulite. The scale ratings range from "0" (None) to "4" (Severe).
- Subjects Satisfaction With Cellulite Treatment at Day 71 [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]A 1-level Subject Satisfaction responder is defined as a participant who is at least Satisfied (Satisfied [+1], or Very Satisfied [+2]) with the appearance of the cellulite on her buttocks at the Day 71 visit. A positive change indicates an improvement in cellulite.
- Serum Antibody Positivity by Visit [ Time Frame: Day 1 - Day 71 ]Percent of participants that are seropositive. Percentages were based on the number of subjects who had immunogenicity lab samples analyzed at the visit.
- Overall Antibody Titer Levels by Visit [ Time Frame: Day 1 - Day 71 ]Descriptive statistics were based on log10 transformation of titer levels. Titer levels were imputed as 10 before the transformation if the reported level is "<10". Only seropositive participants are summarized.
- Presence of Neutralizing Antibody (Seropositivity) at Day 71 (LOCF) by Antidrug Antibody Log Titer Quartiles [ Time Frame: Day 71 ]Q1 and Q4 are based on the ADA titer levels.
