As long as your hemtologist and oncologist agree that your defenses are adequate against infection, during the time of Botox, there should be no issues although if you have a history of easy bruising, then there would be a greater chance of bruising from the Botox injections, but this would be temporary.

As long as your blood counts are normal or acceptable, (red and white blood cells and platelets) , Botox and Restylane should cause no problems. Be careful during and after Chemotherapy sessions. I suggest that you also discuss this matter with your oncologist.

There is no problem with Botox or fillers during treatment of lymphoma. I would not recommend getting injections during the time of the lowest white counts (the nadir) which usually happens one week after chemotherapy sessions, but outside of that as long as the procedure is done cleanly, it's fine to get injections.
During the time of the lowest white counts there may be an increased risk of infection. Also during chemotherapy the platelet count may decrease making bruising during the procedure more likely.

People with blood disorders sometimes bruise a bit more easily than other people, but apart from that you should have no increased risk of problems after treatment with BOTOX® or Restylane®.
When you have a serious illness I think it is very important to look and feel as good as possible, so go ahead and enjoy your treatments with BOTOX® and Restylane®!
