3. Subjects with moderate to severe forehead contour deficiency (i.e., ASFS score of 2-3) as evaluated by blinded investigator according to Asian Sloping Forehead Scale (ASFS);
4. Subjects who are in good health and suitable for receiving treatment for forehead contour improvement as assessed by the investigator;
5. Subjects who are willing to sign informed consent, understand and accept the duration of the study, and are able and willing to comply with all requirements, including scheduled treatment, follow-up, and other study procedures (including clinical photography).

Exclusion Criteria

1. Those with a history of severe allergy or anaphylactic shock or those with a history of allergy which may result in a response to treatment;
2. Those with known allergy to polycaprolactone, carboxymethylcellulose, or any of the ingredients in this product, any local anesthetics such as lidocaine or other amide anesthetics;
3. Those with tattoos, scars, deformities, non-healing wounds, active skin disease or skin inflammation (e.g., herpes, acne, eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, herpes zoster, etc.), abscess, cancer or pre-cancerous lesions and so forth on the forehead that may affect the evaluation of efficacy or increase the risk of treatment;
