Was my Botox over diluted?

March 27, 2014
Asked By:spt1094 in Baltimore, MD

Hi, I went and got botox today. When the doctor asked the assistant if she reconstituted the botox she said "yes". Come to find out, the assistant reconstituted it, and put it back into the saline vial - not the Botox vial. I'm a nurse and used reconstitute botox...there was an awkwardness and I expected the doctor to reconstitute another one properly but she didn't and gave me the overdiluted one...Am I mistaken? It is overdiluted, correct? thanks
