Will lower face drooping (fat pockets?) resolve after third masseter botox treatment wears off?

hbruno13
I'm a 26 y/o female who has received botox to my masseter for bruxism. 24 units total in July '15, 28 units total in Nov '15, and 32 units total in the end of April '16. Since the third treatment, I've noticed facial drooping near either side of my mouth. It's like all the fat from my mid cheeks drooped down to my lower face. I'm not getting any more jaw botox in the future. Will this resolve with time?
