Will Cheek Lift Improve Hollow Lower Eyelids ?

Cari in Canada
I had an aggressive lower blepharoplasty with excessive fat removal. I am now considering a Lower face lift/Neck lift and the surgeon wants to raise the cheeks as part of the lift. I understand this will give me more volume up to the orbital rim, but my hollowness is above the rim. Given the extra healing time, would I not be better skipping the Cheek lift and treating the lower eyelid with fillers or fat? Thanks
