I just received Botox from a Groupon deal yesterday. The liquid in the syringe was a yellow color. I am concerned.

Asked By:chanteuse in Hollywood, FL

Botox injections were given to me in between my eyes and crow's feet a day ago. I specifically said to use Botox, not Dysport, which they tried to push on me. My concern is the liquid inside the syringe was a YELLOW COLOR. Should I be concerned? I thought Botox should be clear or white. Was it bad Botox or did they give me something else? Please advise. Worried.
