Can Botox in forehead cause vertical lines down across eyelids and then cheeks? Noticed both since first Botox in June (Photo)

Asked By:bertieboogie in London, GB

After forehead Botox in early June to address '11' & wrinkles, I noticed a vertical line down each eyelid, especially the right one. And in last month(s),I've also noticed a pronounced vertical line/groove from by the outer eye down each cheek. Again, especially on the right side. Could these be related to the Botox i.e. paralysed muscles above have caused grooves?If so,how to fix this - Peel,laser? But ideally no more procedures as I'm nervous. I'm 51 with very sensitive skin. (Also 'sunned').
