I just received 25 units injected and during treatment a tiny amount squirted from the needle, landed on my lip and may have gotten into my mouth. There is a lot of conflicting information on the web about Botox vs. botulism and what is safe/dangerous. It was just a very tiny, less than a drop, bit but I'm wondering if this is need for concern since it could potentially have been ingested versus injected. Is Botox in its form poisonous and, if so, how much is actually dangerous?
