Can Botox be the reason behind deep vertical lines in the forehead (close to the hairline)? (Photos)

Creative49667
43 yr old male - noticed 2 deep vertical lines in my forehead. I did Botox mid July and a touch-up 1 week ago. The doctor is telling me these are sleep lines and have nothing to do with Botox, he insists that the problem is my bad skin elasticity. I am not very convinced because they are deep, wide and feel like a hallow cavity in the skull when you touch it! I am really worried and confused. Appreciate some feedback on what exactly is the problem and the best treatment to fix it!
