3. Subject willing to abstain from other facial aesthetic procedures in the mid-face through the last study follow-up visit which could interfere with treatment outcomes (e.g., facial fillers, skin laser and radiofrequency therapy such as Thermage, chemical re-surfacing, dermabrasion, Botox injections, aesthetic facial surgery, other facial treatments of the mid-face).

4. Subject willing and able to comply with study follow-up procedures and schedule.
