| Primary | Responder Rate for Nasolabial Folds Based on the Blinded Rater's Evaluation on the Merz Nasolabial Folds Scale (MNLFS) at Week 12/16 (Depending on Touch-up) | The MNLFS was used to assess the severity of nasolabial folds. The assessment was performed separately for the left and the right nasolabial fold by the blinded rater and the treating investigator (at baseline only prior to SMD injection) by live rating. MNLFS was a 5 point scale ranging as: 0 (no folds), 1 (mild folds), 2 (moderate folds), 3 (severe folds), 4 (very severe folds). Responders rate was defined as percentage of participants who achieved improvement of greater than or equal to (>=) 1 point in both folds (left and right) from Day 1 pre-injection to Week 12/16 (depending on touch-up). As planned, the cumulative data was collected for Week 12 or Week 16 based on the touch-up. | At Week 12 (for participants with no touch-up) or Week 16 (for participants with touch-up) | |
