Outer eyes area looking hollow. Also a little swollen on upper cheeks (Photo)

peterpan99
Outer areas of my eyes look hollow, also the upper cheeks seem a little swollen? Not concerned about tear through, just outer eye areas. I'm a Botox patient, my doctor told me this is not related to Botox at all, but looks like SOOF Edema. I don't know what this is, or how to treat. Picture was taken >6 mo after botox treatment. I wanted to see if it wears off. Might this be caused by botox or is it just natural aging?
