Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Responders on Merz Aesthetic Scale (MAS) Décolleté Wrinkles - at Rest at Week 24

    Time frame: Week 24

    The percentage of responders (responder rate) was defined as the percentage of subjects achieving greater than or equal to (>=) 1-point improvement on MAS décolleté wrinkles-at Rest from baseline to Week 24 as assessed by the blinded evaluator. Responder rate was assessed using MAS-at rest scale, where 0 = no wrinkles, 1 = mild wrinkles, 2 = moderate wrinkles, 3 = severe wrinkles, 4 = very severe wrinkles. Higher score indicated the worse outcome. This analysis was done using multiple imputation method to impute missing values.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Responders on MAS Décolleté Wrinkles - Dynamic at Week 24

    Time frame: Week 24

    The percentage of responders (responder rate) was defined as the percentage of subjects achieving >= 1-point improvement on MAS décolleté wrinkles-Dynamic from baseline to Week 24 as assessed by the blinded evaluator. Responder rate was assessed using MAS-Dynamic scale, where 0 = no wrinkles, 1 = mild wrinkles, 2 = moderate wrinkles, 3 = severe wrinkles, 4 = very severe wrinkles. Higher score indicated the worse outcome. This analysis was done using multiple imputation method to impute missing values.

  2. Percentage of Subjects With Any Improvement on Investigator Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (iGAIS) at Week 24

    Time frame: Week 24

    Improvement is defined as a rating of +1 (Improved), +2 (Much improved) or +3 (Very much improved). Treating investigators used iGAIS, where - 3 = very much worse, - 2 = much worse, - 1 = worse, 0 = no change, + 1 = improved, + 2 = much improved, + 3 = very much improved. Higher score indicated aesthetic improvement.

  3. Percentage of Subjects With Any Improvement on Subject Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (sGAIS) at Week 24

    Time frame: Week 24

    Improvement is defined as a rating of +1 (Improved), +2 (Much improved) or +3 (Very much improved). Subjects used the sGAIS, where - 3 = very much worse, - 2 = much worse, - 1 = worse, 0 = no change, + 1 = improved, + 2 = much improved, + 3 = very much improved. Higher score indicated aesthetic improvement.

  4. Number of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Related to Radiesse

    Time frame: From initial treatment (Day 1 for Treatment group and Week 24 for Control/Delayed treatment group) up to end of the study (up to Week 84)

    TEAEs are defined as AEs with onset on or after date of first administration of study treatment. Treatment related TEAEs are defined as any TEAEs related to diluted Radiesse treatment (that is, related to either injection procedure and/or device).
