15 units of Botox in crows feet area causing cheek sagging/nasolabial folds to worsen?

I have been treated with botox 3 times now in crows feet area. This past time I went I know she gave me 7.5 units per side. After about a week I noticed my cheeks looked like they were sagging and my nasolabial lines had worsened. I also notice that my cheeks feel heavy and almost numb, especially when I wake up first thing in the morning. I know she puts one injection right under my pupil area along with the sides and I'm thinking that that lowest injection is what is causing the problem.
