Antibacterial wipe post Botox. OK?
As you described what happened, you should be just fine. Please don't worry about having messed something up. Remember it takes 4 days to start seeing results.

After Botox
Using an antibacterial wipe will not affect your Botox results and often times these are used before the treatment to clean the area. I would just becareful with the amount of pressure one uses to clean the area. I always tell patients to pat the area where Botox was injected instead of wiping it so that the Botox does not diffuse into areas we do not want it to go to.

Botox and antibiotic wipe after
No, using a topical antibiotic wipe to remove blood post-Botox injection won't have any affect on your treatment.

BOTOX contains no bacteria.
The wet wipe will not affect your treatment in any way. I often prepare the skin for BOTOX treatment using a skin cleaner that is essentially a fancy wet wipe. So forgettaboutit. This will have absolutely no bearing on your treatment.

It's hard to mess up your Botox once it's done safely: Antibacterial wipes won't hurt it.
Catgury,
Don't worry about messing up your Botox. Wiping the skin with an antibacterial wipe right after treatment won't hurt the Botox, and if you have used those wipes before without a problem, won't hurt you either. I'm sorry you left the office with blood specks on you though. I hope your doctor will make sure you're cleared for social viewing before you leave the office next time. Enjoy your Botox!

Antibacterial wipe after Botox?
Not to worry, using an antibacterial wipe will not effect your result. In general, you should avoid the following after your Botox treatment:
1) Lying down immediately after the procedure
2) Intense physical activity the first few hours after your procedure
I hope this helps, and enjoy the result of your Botox treatment!

It shouldn't impact your Botox. Don't stress over this. An antibacterial applied topically should make no difference.

No need to worry
Wiping off the "little blood specks" after botox injection will not have any impact on the efficacy of the injections themselves. So no need to worry.
