Popped Pimple Near Botox Injection Site?

rhino_in_CA
About half an hour after receiving Botox injections on my "11s" (24 units), I absentmindedly popped a pimple on my forehead. It was above my injection site and a bit off to the side of my forehead, and I didn't apply great pressure. I didn't press INTO my forehead so much as squeezed the skin around the pimple. Should I be concerned?
