Sagging Lower Eyelids After Botox

Toronto8610
Can injecting around the upper cheek area under the outer edges of the eye cause muscle weekness affecting lower eyelid sag. I was showing the signs of crepey lower eye lid but it looks so much worse now after the botox because it seems my eyes are too weak to hold the skin up? Is this common? I realize that other parts of the look better but this was the second time I have had botox and didn't have this problem.
