Botox Caused Malar Bags?

Fallingapart
After receiving botox I got what I now know is called maler bags. The docs office (nurse not doc) told me I needed lower bleph and Co2 laser. Other places have told me I need lower bleph and laser or just a skin pinch. I don't have fat under eyes. I am very slim and athletic albeit old! I do have crepey skin. I am confused and worried about making things worse. Any suggestions? I have had botox before (about 2 years before) and this did not happen, but then I am 2 years older!
