Revance and Teoxane Announce the FDA Approval of RHA® Dynamic Volume for Midface Contour Deficiencies

RHA® Dynamic Volume delivers high patient satisfaction with youthful, attractive cheeks at rest and in motion.1

Nashville, TN – January 13, 2026 – Revance and Teoxane announce the FDA approval of RHA® Dynamic Volume from the Teoxane RHA® Collection for cheek augmentation and/or the correction of age-related midface contour deficiencies, in adults aged 22 years or older. Formerly known as RHA® 4 Mepi, the product will formally launch under its new name, RHA® Dynamic Volume, in Q1 2026. 

Designed to provide dynamic contour enhancement and structural support, RHA® Dynamic Volume delivers lasting volume with its high dynamic strength and stretch, and the ability to maintain its structural integrity.2 RHA® Dynamic Volume is powered by Preserved Network Technology (PNT), a gentle, heatless, homogenous crosslinking process that helps preserve the natural structure of hyaluronic acid.2,3

“We are incredibly proud of the approval for midface with RHA® Dynamic Volume. This news marks the second major advancement from the Teoxane RHA® Collection in the past few months, following the evolution of the Teoxane RHA® Collection through the introduction of the local anesthetic Mepivacaine in late August. The new midface indication enables us to meet more patient needs than ever before,” shares Nadeem Moiz, CEO of Revance. “Revance remains committed to innovating and providing diverse treatment options to address a variety of patient concerns.”

This approval is supported by positive results from the 52-week Phase III clinical trial program where the efficacy and safety of RHA® Dynamic Volume was evaluated in a prospective, randomized, between-subjects, double-blinded, multicenter head-to-head study with Juvéderm® Voluma® XC, in patients with moderate to severe midface volume deficiency. Results found that RHA® Dynamic Volume demonstrated comparable effectiveness to Voluma®, with patients treated with RHA® Dynamic Volume requiring fewer treatment sessions and touch-ups to achieve similar outcomes.1,4 Patients reported improved satisfaction with cheek attractiveness, youthfulness, smoothness, contour and symmetry, and >94% of participants reported natural-looking and feeling results at rest and in motion up to 1 year post-treatment. Patients also reported no perception of restricted facial movement, further confirming the filler’s adaptability to dynamic facial expressions.1  

During the clinical trial program, 75% of subjects were treated in both superficial fat and deep fat to achieve balanced volume restoration, utilizing a contemporary treatment approach that aims to optimize outcomes by addressing midface volume loss comprehensively with efficient use of product.4 RHA® Dynamic Volume exhibited a favorable safety profile with no late-onset or serious treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), and no TRAEs deemed to be a granuloma or delayed inflammatory response.4    

“This study marks the U.S. introduction of a midface contouring approach that has been supported by more than a decade of post-marketing surveillance in Europe,” states Sandra Chennoufi, Chief Scientific Officer of Teoxane. “Leveraging the versatility of RHA® Dynamic Volume and the Teoxane MLT Multilayering Technique™, physicians can now address midface volume deficiencies by targeting multiple tissue depths for deep and superficial fat pads.”

The Teoxane MLT Multilayering Technique™ is a tailored injection approach designed for midface volume restoration using a single, adaptable gel— RHA® Dynamic Volume.5,6 This technique involves strategically placing RHA® Dynamic Volume into the subcutaneous and supraperiosteal layers to restore volume, redefine contours, and harmonize facial proportions according to each patient’s anatomy and aging pattern.7 

RHA® Dynamic Volume provides deep structural support while allowing for natural tissue integration and facial expressiveness due to its unique rheological profile, combining high projection capacity with dynamic adaptability. Rooted in anatomical precision and Teoxane’s ATP approach (Anatomy, Assessment & Ageing, Technique Product), the Teoxane MLT Multilayering Technique™ emphasizes safety and precision by identifying and avoiding high-risk vascular zones. The result is a subtle, natural rejuvenation that enhances facial harmony without overcorrection.5,7,8

Double board-certified facial plastic surgeon and Clinical Assistant Professor at University of Illinois, Dr. Steven Dayan, states, “The approval of RHA® Dynamic Volume for midface is an exciting advancement for the entire industry. The results we discovered during the study were incredibly profound, and I’m excited to be able to offer a tailored treatment option for my patients.”

RHA® Collection of Fillers, by Teoxane 

The Teoxane RHA® Collection includes hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers with lidocaine and mepivacaine. Revance will only distribute the Teoxane RHA® Collection with Mepivacaine, thus may refer to the products without the use of “Mepi” in the product name. The long-term efficacy and safety outcomes of RHA® with lidocaine are applicable to RHA® with mepivacaine, and mepivacaine has shown no significant impact on gel properties, including rheology and degradation profile. 

RHA® Collection of Fillers, by Teoxane Approved Uses

RHA Redensity® and RHA Redensity® Mepi are for injection into the facial tissue for the correction of moderate to severe dynamic perioral rhytids. RHA® 2, RHA® 2 Mepi and RHA® 4 are for the correction of moderate to severe dynamic facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (NLFs), in adults 22 or older. RHA® 3 and RHA® 3 Mepi are for the correction of moderate to severe dynamic facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (NLFs), and also used to augment lip fullness in adults 22 or older. RHA® Dynamic Volume is for correction of moderate to severe dynamic facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (NLFs) and for cheek augmentation and/or correction of age-related midface contour deficiencies in adults 22 or older.

 

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Are there any reasons why I should not receive any RHA® injectable gel formulation?

Do not receive if you have a history of multiple severe allergies or severe allergic reactions; if you are allergic to lidocaine or mepivacaine or gram-positive bacterial proteins; or if you have a bleeding disorder.

What precautions should I discuss with my doctor?

·       Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding as the safety of these products for use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding has not been studied

·       Tell your doctor if you have a history of excessive scarring, keloid formations or pigmentation disorders, as use of these products may result in additional scars or changes in pigmentation

·       Tell your doctor if you are planning laser treatments or a chemical peel, as there is a possible risk of inflammation at the treatment site if these procedures are performed after treatment

·       Tell your doctor if you are on immunosuppressive therapy used to decrease your immune response, as use of these products may result in an increased risk of infection

·       Tell your doctor if you are using medications that can prolong bleeding, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or other blood thinners, as this may increase bruising or bleeding at the injection site

·       The safety and effectiveness of RHA® fillers in areas other than those indicated have not been established in U.S. clinical studies

·       Patients who experience skin injury near the site of injection with this product may be at a higher risk for side effects

·       Minimize strenuous exercise, exposure to extensive sun or heat, and alcoholic beverages within the first 24 hours following treatment

What are possible side effects?

The most commonly reported side effects included injection-site redness, swelling, pain, tenderness, firmness, lumps/bumps, bruising, discoloration, and itching.

One of the risks with using these products is unintentional injection into a blood vessel, and while rare, the complications can be serious and may be permanent. These complications, which have been reported for facial injections, can include vision abnormalities, blindness, stroke, temporary scabs, or permanent scarring.

Delayed-onset inflammation near the site of dermal filler injections is one of the known side effects associated with dermal fillers. Cases of delayed-onset inflammation have been reported to occur at the treatment site following viral or bacterial illnesses or infections, vaccinations, or dental procedures.

Typically, the reported inflammation was responsive to being treated or resolved on its own.

As with all skin injection procedures, there is a risk of infection and recurrence of herpetic eruptions.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION


Contraindications


Do not use in patients who have severe allergies, marked by a history of anaphylaxis or multiple severe allergies, or in patients with a history of allergies to gram-positive bacterial proteins or local anesthetics of the amide type, such as lidocaine and mepivacaine.

Do not use in patients with bleeding disorders.

Warnings


Do not inject into blood vessels. Introduction of these products into the vasculature may lead to embolization, occlusion of the vessels, ischemia, or infarction. Take extra care when injecting soft-tissue fillers; for example, inject the product slowly and apply the least amount of pressure necessary. Rare, but serious, adverse events associated with the intravascular injection of soft-tissue fillers in the face have been reported and include temporary or permanent vision impairment, blindness, cerebral ischemia or cerebral hemorrhage leading to stroke, skin necrosis, and damage to underlying facial structures.

Immediately stop the injection if a patient exhibits any of the following symptoms: changes in vision, signs of a stroke, blanching of the skin, or unusual pain during or shortly after the procedure. Patients should receive prompt medical attention and, possibly, evaluation by an appropriate healthcare professional specialist should an intravascular injection occur.

Product use at specific sites in which an active inflammatory process or infection is present should be deferred until the underlying process has been controlled.

Precautions


These products should only be used by healthcare professionals who have appropriate training, experience, and knowledge of facial anatomy.

Discuss the potential risks of soft-tissue injections with your patients prior to treatment and ensure that patients are aware of signs and symptoms of potential complications.

The safety and effectiveness for the treatment of anatomic regions other than the labeled indications have not been established in controlled U.S. clinical studies

As with all transcutaneous procedures, dermal filler implantation carries a risk of infection. Standard precautions associated with injectable materials should be followed.

The safety for use in sites in the presence of other implants, during pregnancy, in breastfeeding females, and in patients with known susceptibility to keloid formation, hypertrophic scarring, and pigmentation disorders has not been studied.

Use with caution in patients on immunosuppressive therapy.

Patients who are using products that can prolong bleeding (such as thrombolytics, anticoagulants, or inhibitors of platelet aggregation) may experience increased bruising or bleeding at treatment sites.

Patients with a history of herpetic eruptions may experience reactivation of the herpes.

There is a possible risk of inflammation at the implant site if laser treatments or a chemical peel are performed after treatment.

Use as supplied. Modification or use of the product outside the Directions for Use may adversely impact the sterility, safety, homogeneity, or performance of the product.

For single patient use. Do not reuse a syringe between two treatments and/or between two patients. Do not resterilize.

Adverse Events


The most commonly reported side effects were firmness, redness, tenderness, swelling, lumps/bumps, bruising, discoloration, pain and itching. Most of these events were mild or moderate and resolved within 14 days.

Delayed-onset inflammation near the site of dermal filler injections is one of the known adverse events associated with dermal fillers.
