Can Botox Cause Water Retention Under Eyes?

botoxnewbie
I had Botox on my crow's feet (and between my brows) and after about a week, I got a puffy, watery bag under one eye. It looks like I was punched in the eye (without the brusing) or had a teaspoon of water injected under my eye. I went back to the doctor who treated me who said it was ademoa and doubts it was caused by Botox but... I have tried icing it, sleeping on my back, reducing salt. It is on the side of my face where I sleep and I wonder if the combination of Botox and presure from the pillow may have caused this. Does this happen often? Is there anything that can be done?
