Do Not Go to This Doctor

I do not recommend Dr Aaron Woodard from Preventous. He ruined my face, and I paid him to do it!!! After a consult, $5K total for separate sessions or $4K for full face optimization.?I opted for full face rejuvenation ($4000).  After I advised him I was going on vacation to Mexico, he wouldn't do full face rejuvenation (THANK GOD!).Actually his assistants vocalized that it probably wouldn't happen. 

??At my initial appointment, he filled my chin and my marionette lines and he created a dent in my chin which I never had before. He didn't see that he created it. His assistant asked me if I ever had a scar on my chin (which I never had, she knew it) he then tried to fix it (he didn't). ?

During my follow up I voiced my complaints: ??brown dis-coloration in my marionette lines: that he stated he never seen filler causing it before as he used filler that doesn't cause tyndall...hinting that it must have been because I went to Mexico. I have lived in very warm climate had fillers during the summer when its 30+ degrees and sunny for days. I am very diligent with sunscreen and wear a large brim hat to protect my face ....I travel a couple of times a year often get fillers prior to my trip....never ever have I experienced discolouration like this. I guess in his practice only people get fillers in the winter????
The dent in my chin still exists. He injected more into my chin, and advised me to "massage and white knuckle the filler into the dent"??

3) when I  advised him I bruised a lot from the fillers, I wasn't so really bothered by it as it was resolved by the time I returned from my vacation, just a mention...and he said that bruising is good as it helps with collagen. In addition my chin was very vascular, it wasn’t before??. He did acknowledge that my chin was very vascular he offered me laser treatment to get rid of it. He asked to have the machine moved into the treatment room. I was wondering if he had the proper training etc. Luckily, somebody spoke up and advised that the clinic laser professional would perform the treatment. She did, she was super nice but my results were minimal (she did what she was directed by the doctor). ??To address my discolouration, Dr Woodard injected hyaluronidase to dissolve the filler in the side that had most of the filler....So I was left with bigger jowl on that side of my face then when I went to the clinic (I'm only 41) hyaluronidase also dissolves the naturally occurring hyaluronic acid and my natural lip line was also disrupted as a result.??
I had to go to another clinic to try to fix my face, they tried to fix his work as best they could. I had a lot of scar tissue in my jowels due to doctor Woodard (again bruising is good according to him right!) $2500 later to fix his mistake. ?I asked for a refund, they wanted me to come back and let him fix it. Its not like a bad hair cut, its my face I can’t grow another. I believe this doctor takes unnecessary risks and is very questionable in his approach. I do not recommend this doctor!
