My right side is definitely way more swollen than my left. When I smile my cheekbones raise so much and are protruding out. I haven't had any fillers, only Botox 2 months ago for forehead/glabella and crows. I'm wondering if when the swelling goes down (which I'm praying it's all temporary swelling) that my right lower lid area is going to be more tightened than my left (L side has less swelling)? My eyes have always had mild/low moderate hollowness d/t genetics.
