Treatment and study plan

Radiesse® Injectable Dermal Filler Mixed with Lidocaine

Device

Calcium hydroxylapatite particles suspended in an aqueous based gel carrier mixed with 2% lidocaine hydrochloride (HCl)

Radiesse® Injectable Dermal Filler without Lidocaine

Device

Calcium hydroxylapatite particles suspended in an aqueous based gel carrier without 2% lidocaine hydrochloride (HCl)

Primary outcomes

  1. Pain Score Using a 10-cm Visual Analog Pain Scale (1 = no Pain, 10 = Very Severe Pain)

    Time frame: Immediately after injection (Time 0)

    Assessment of difference in pain score in the Radiesse Dermal Filler Mixed with Lidocaine nasolabial fold v. the Radiesse Dermal Filler without Lidocaine nasolabial fold using a 10-cm visual analog pain scale (1 = no pain, 10 = very severe pain).

  2. Patients With Clinically Significant Reduction in Pain

    Time frame: Immediately after injection (Time 0)

    Assessment of clinical significance of pain reduction in the Radiesse Injectable Dermal Filler Mixed with Lidocaine nasolabial fold v. Radiesse Injectable Dermal Filler without Lidocaine nasolabial fold defined as number of participants with >/= 2cm difference on a visual analog pain scale (1 = no pain, 10 = very severe pain).
