I was my first time having botox treatment. It has caused a cheek drop and a hollowness under the eye. It has also created dark under eye due to the skin being pulled. I am 3.5 month post injection. I feel like a stroke victim. How much longer will this last? Is there anything I can do to help the process? Is it just a small part of the Zygomaticus major muscle that has been effected? Will exercise help? Massage?
