Upper Eyelid Hollowing. Can 5 FU shots cause fat grafting and native fat to atrophy?

eyesore
Can 5 FU shots in your upper eyelids cause both fat grafting and native fat to atrophy? I was told only steroid shots do that and 5 FU only softens scar tissue. Is this true? Can a chemical peel in both upper and lower eyelids cause hollowing?
