ZUG, Switzerland — Galderma (SIX: GALD) today announced positive topline results from a study of Restylane Volyme for the correction of moderate-to-severe temple hollowing in 162 patients in China.1 The study met its primary endpoint, demonstrating the effectiveness and safety of Restylane Volyme versus a no-treatment control, while also achieving high patient and investigator satisfaction.1 These data further reinforce Galderma’s ambition to expand its Restylane hyaluronic acid (HA) injectables portfolio in China, one of the world’s fastest-growing aesthetics markets, through evidence generation that supports broader patient access and additional treatment areas.1-3 Powered by diverse NASHA®, NASHA HD™, and OBT™ technologies, Restylane offers gels with the highest firmness to the highest flexibility, enabling personalized treatments that deliver structural support, natural-looking results, and a healthy glow.1,4-8 Restylane Volyme is a moderately soft and flexible gel made with OBT that distributes within the tissue to offer natural-looking results, helping to soften temple hollowing, restore facial balance, and create a refreshed appearance.1,4,9 With a dual-layer patent-pending technique leveraging both needle and cannula, Restylane Volyme enables healthcare professionals to provide precise, customized, and safe product placement in line with each patient’s aesthetic goals10-12 The volume of the temples can diminish with age, which can disrupt facial balance and harmony, and contribute to a tired, sunken, and aged appearance.12-14 These facial changes can be accelerated in people undergoing medication-driven weight loss, a phenomenon which has increased rapidly in recent years.12-14 Following the launch of Restylane Volyme in China for the treatment of the mid-face region, this study provides new evidence supporting its effectiveness and safety for correction of temple hollowing, in a market where there are currently limited options.1 “Temple hollowing is a common concern among patients seeking facial rejuvenation, particularly for those experiencing medication-driven weight loss, yet treatment options in China remain limited. These results demonstrate that Restylane Volyme can provide effective, natural-looking correction with high levels of patient satisfaction and a robust safety profile. As demand for individualized aesthetic treatments continues to grow in China, expanding the range of evidence-based solutions available will be increasingly important.”
