The cumulative effect of aging and environmental exposures (ie, ultraviolet, infrared, and visible light radiation and pollution) leads to wrinkles, discoloration, laxity, and roughness of sun exposed skin. The rapid restoration of soft tissue augmentation is commonly achieved by the use of dermal fillers. HArmonyCa Lidocaine injectable gel is a dermal filler intended for facial soft tissue augmentation. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events and effectiveness of HArmonyCa Lidocaine injectable gel compared to Restylane® Perlane® Lidocaine (Perlane) in adults seeking restoration and/or correction of moderate to severe mid-face volume deficit. HArmonyCa Lidocaine Injectable Gel is an investigational device being developed for soft tissue augmentation in the mid face. Participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. There is a 1 in 3 chance that participants will be assigned to the receive active comparator, Perlane. Around 252 adult participants seeking restoration and/or creation of mid-face volume will be enrolled in the study at approximately 9 sites in China. Participants will receive HArmonyCa Lidocaine injectable gel or Perlane at Day 1 with an option touch-up treatment on Day 31. Participants will be followed for up to 12 Months after last treatment. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

Percentage of Participants Achieving "Responder" Status Based on the Evaluating Investigator's (EI) Live Assessment of Mid-Face Volume Deficit Scale (MFVDS)
A "responder" is a participant with at least 1-point improvement (reduction) of mid face volume deficit using the MFVDS. MFVDS is a validated 5-point scale (1 = None/Minimal to 5 = Severe).
Time frame: Month 6
Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs)
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a medical device which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.
Time frame: Up to Approximately Month 14
Percentage of Participants Achieving "Responder" Status Based on EI's Assessments of Global Aesthetic Improvement in the Treatment Area Using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS)
A "responder" is a participant who achieves "Improved" or "Much Improved" on GAIS. GAIS is a 5-point scale used to assess global aesthetic improvement of the treatment area (2 = Much Improved, -2 = Much Worse).
Time frame: Month 6
Percentage of Participants Achieving "Responder" Status Based on Participant's Assessments of Global Aesthetic Improvement in the Treatment Area Using GAIS
A "responder" is a participant who achieves "Improved" or "Much Improved" on GAIS. GAIS is a 5-point scale used to assess global aesthetic improvement of the treatment area (2 = Much Improved to -2 = Much Worse).
Time frame: Month 6
Change from Baseline on the Overall Score of FACE-Q Satisfaction with Cheeks
The FACE-Q Satisfaction with Cheeks questionnaire is a 5-point survey where 1 = Very Dissatisfied and 4 = Very Satisfied.
Time frame: Month 6
