Can I use filler instead of botox on the number 11 on my forehead?

lilhelp
I had botox injected into forehead lines and between my eyebrows. Every time I have had this procedure, I inform the injector (four different injectors) that I get hooded, tired/puffy looking eyelids. I just had 15 units and I can only raise the outer corner of my eyebrows slightly no forehead movement and awful droopy looking eyelids. Going forward, I can live with the forehead lines but the 11's bother me the most, can I just use filler there? Do the whole forehead but cut back on the units?
