What can I do to remove eye bag that was caused by Botox? 6 month out (photos)

December 16, 2022
Asked By:Shyann10 in Naperville, Illinois

I had Botox for crows feet 6 months ago. After the injections I developed a eye bag under one of my eyes that has yet to go away. I have photos from that morning with no eye bag so I feel certain it was the Botox that caused it. Upon recommendations I have tried various lymphatic drainage options, taking antihistamines, ice rollers, but nothing seems to be working. I was hopeful it would go away after the Botox wore off but no luck. Any thoughts are appreciated!
