No relation: Botox is a toxin that paralyzes muscles. It is used as a cosmetic treatment to reduce wrinkles caused by smiling, etc. Sun exposure should not affect the Botox treatment, but it can damage the skin. It sounds like you experienced a significant sunburn which can cause skin damage, swelling and redness. Apply cool compresses to affected area, and cover the skin with emollient cream/gel such as aloe
