Botox is placed into the muscle that one wants to effect. It is designed not to travel systemically. The quantity of Botox even if it does get into the blood stream is very small. As of this writing, the drug has been used millions of times without reports of kidney or liver damage.
You bring up a valid question, but the answer is no. Used in the correct manner, Botox should not be harmful to your liver and kidneys. The FDA has approved the use of Botox and with this approval you can be rest assured that it is safe.

Dear NanfrndCosmetic BOTOX and Dysport have proven to be extremely safe products with amazing track records of reliability. Like any drug, too much of the product in the wrong place can lead to temporary concerns, but they are temporary and wear off. Concerns regarding the liver and kidney have never been an issue.

As the others have indicated, Botox generally has no negative effects on the liver or kidneys. Doses should not exceed 500-600 units at any one time. If administered in excessively high doses, Botox can cause botulism, involving muscle paralysis, even death (with approximately 3,000 units).
