Is there alcohol of any kind in Botox?

ChloeIrene
Hello, I regularly get botox and have an appointment this weekend. I recently had an alcohol monitoring bracelet put on to help with my addiction. My question is if there is any alcohol in the solution? Small amounts will set off the device. Also, is there an alternative to alcohol wipes for prepping the skin prior to injection?
