About

This study will assess the safety and effectiveness of a dermal filler called DKL crosslinked hyaluronic acid 20 mg/mL with lidocaine 0.3% when injected into the lips of healthy men and women who want to have fuller lips. The change in the appearance of the lips will be checked.

Full description

This is a single-arm, open-label, multi-center clinical investigation to evaluate the safety, performance, and usability of DKL crosslinked hyaluronic acid 20 mg/mL + lidocaine 0.3% for lip augmentation in healthy male and female volunteers with thin lips. Eligible participants will undergo treatment with crosslinked hyaluronic acid 20 mg/mL + lidocaine 0.3% injected into the lips for lip augmentation. Each participant will act as his/her own control. The improvement in lip appearance over time will be evaluated.
