Brief Summary: This is a prospective clinical study to demonstrate a reduction in jowling and laxity of the jawline that can be achieved following facial volume enhancement using JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC (0.3% w/w lidocaine). The secondary measure will be if this can be achieved with Jawline injection only, or if a superior result can be obtained with both cheek and jowl injection.
Detailed Description: This study is proposed to evaluate the best protocol for achieving improvement in the sagging jawline. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC will be injected in each of 16 women with sagging of grades 1-3 using a published jawline evaluation scale. Patients will be randomized into 1:1 into 2 groups: Patient Group 1: JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC 1-2 syringes (each syringe is 1 cc) will be injected bilaterally into the lateral jawline and inferior cheek area (preauricular area) (the latter area will be added if necessary to achieve visual improvement in jowl attenuation). Total syringes used per person will have a range of 1-2) Patient Group 2: JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC 1-3 syringes (each syringe is 1 cc) will be injected bilaterally into the lateral cheek (zygomatic) area plus JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC 1-2 syringes (each syringe is 1 cc) will be injected into the lateral jawline and inferior cheek area (preauricular area) (the latter area will be added if necessary to achieve visual improvement in jowl attenuation). Total syringes used per person will have a range of 2-5) High-resolution photographs from multiple angles will be taken in identical lighting and position with the VISIA CR (clinical research) and with the Fotofinder at baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 or 16 weeks. Additional real-time video telemedicine visits will take place at 6 months and 12 months. In addition, a 72-hour safety phone call will be completed with the subject after each injection session. All visit timing will be based on the last injection session. One blinded dermatologist and one unblinded dermatologist will rate the patient's severity of jowling based on the Jawline Rating Scale (JRS) (1) at the 4-week, 8-week, and either 12 or 16-week visits. The patient will also rate their jowling based on the JRS as well as their satisfaction with the procedure.
