“Miradry”

I had only one treatment if Miradry and was amazed at the results. I used to perspired for nearly any reason, hot, cold, nervous, whatever. The underarm moisture was a constant embarassment and problem. With just one treatment the perspiration was reduced to the degree that I now rarely feel any moisture regardless of the situation.

“melafind”

I was excited to know beforehand whether the "mole" on my back was in need of removal. With melafind I knew within mins that the mole in question was deep, suspicious and in need of removal. Dr Sophonio explained my choices of removing and finding out if in fact it needed to be removed or taking the "Picture" and determining beforehand if it needed to be removed. I chose to use the new technology to my advantage.

“Ultherapy”

I had Ultherapy for fatty deposits in my cheek that were a side effect of medications, The problem was not correctable through surgery. The Ultherapy treatment reduced 70% of the swelling to the point where I now look normal. It was done in one painless session with no side effects. I'm pleased and amazed,

“Eyelid Surgery”

Dr. Sofonio and his staff were very impressive. I have looked for 10 years before I finally chose Dr. Sofonio to do surgery on me. I have complete confidence and trust in Dr. Sofonio. Dr. Sofonio took his time, and explained everything for me. All my questions were answered. I have seen at least a dozen other Doctors for consultations and Dr. Sofonio was the first Doctor that didn't try and convince me to do other procedures that I did not come in for. Dr. Sofonio also seemed to have the most knowledge of many procedures. My Mother also came for a consultation and she had work done before from someone else and was not happy. Dr. Sofonio was able to explain why she was unhappy with her past experience. I am looking forward to when he will help her feel so much better about herself an fix the things that need to be fixed. It is more than wonderful to have a doctor you can trust who will do it RIGHT the FIRST TIME. It is nice to enhance your looks. Thank you Dr. Sofonio.

“Couldn't be happier”

Dr. Sofonio came highly recommended to me for my breast reduction surgery and he did not disappoint. The entire process from the consult to the after surgery care were first rate and seamless. The doctor is very skilled and capable and has immense knowledge of the surgery. I couldn't be happier with the whole experience and the results are better than I could have hoped for. His staff and facilities are excellent as well. Would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone for any cosmetic procedures.

“Very professional and very pleased with my results.”

He was very attentive to my concerns and gave me excellent advice on what procedures would be best for me. When I wanted something in particular done he refused because he did not feel that it would be what I needed to accomplish the look I was going for. The rest of his staff are knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend anyone considering surgery or any sort of facial and body enhancements to consider his practice above all. The entire staff is always accommodating and helpful. Doctor Sofonio is concerned for your welfare first of all, but also that you are happy with his work.

“Excellent Anti-Aging Expert”

I'm a guy that is 40+ and I just started botox. Dr. Sofonio's staff made me feel comfortable (I was worried about being the only guy in an office full of women). It was not an issue. Procedures are super quick, minimal waiting and Jon answered all my questions. Excellent price - the best in Coachella Valley. My co-workers said I must have had an relaxing weekend. My boss asked what I was doing to reduce stress because I looked so much less worried. Did I look that bad before? All I know is that I feel more confident and this was a hassle free experience!

Dr. Sofonio is one of the most professional, and reliable Doctors I have ever had the privilege of knowing. He is very punctual on his appointments which lets you know that he considers your time just as important as his own. Dr. Sofonia has great integrity, and will not perform any plastic surgery procedure he feels is not necessary.
The doctor treated me with the utmost amount of dignity and respect, while meticulously examining me, explaining to me in artistic detail the surgical procedures he would be performing on me. His caring sensitivity and artistry are second to none. I would highly recommend Dr. Sofonio to anyone.

Dr. Sofonio is a great surgeon!! I had a complete face lift upper and mid plus a neck lift and my eyes done. I am completely satisfied and my results are fantastic! Dr Sofonio takes his time and does a wonderful job. Big plus he also has experience with burn patients and knows how to handle skin. I have gone to Beverly Hills and orange county before. But so glad I found him. Driving back and forth all the time wears you out. I would like to mention his staff who are friendly, compassionate
