Do antibiotics fight off Botox?

Mommarie
I had Botox and then got the flu 4 days later and was given antibiotics 3 days after getting the flu. Yesterday my forehead was nice and smooth and today (day 2 of antibiotics) it has much more movement through half of it. Are the antibiotics actually fighting off the Botox?
