ive been getting botox for the past year and a half as well as filler. I get botox for crows feet and for my under eyes. I have vertical indents on the right and left cheek when i smile. These were never there before. I am afraid these are happening from muscle degeneration from the botox. Could this be possible? My injector has injected radiesse and juvaderm into these spots, but they are back within a few weeks. My face has never had them before, and im terrified. Is there anything to fix this
