How is it that I have more wrinkles under my eyes after getting Restylane Lyft filler and botox? (photo)

Asked By:ladstar in Los Angeles, CA

I had restylane lyft done under my eyes one week ago on upper cheek area as well as Botox on my forehead, crows feet and upper cheek. I still have very slight swelling under my left eye but I have acquired many more horizontal wrinkles under my eyes and deep indentations. I actually look older now. So will these horizontal lines go away if I wait a few weeks or can something be done to get rid of these new lines that have appeared? Can't figure out why this is happening??
