“Outstanding Care and Beautiful Results Dr. Sofonio removed my encapsulated breast implants, replaced them with new implants, and performed an areolar crescent lift. I couldn’t be happier with the results. My breasts now look amazing—natural, balanced, and exactly what I was hoping for. His surgical skill and attention to detail truly show in the outcome. B…”

“I had a breast augmentation done in June of 2025 and shortly after my right breast had a contracture. Dr. Sofonio was so attentive to the situation. He was beyond professional and concerned for my well being. I had to wait 6 months to avoid any infections. But at the 6 month mark he got me right into surgery.

Next 30-day re-screen · July 4, 2026 · Badge revokes automatically if anything slips.
Screened means the public record holds up: their identity matches, their site is real, their copy doesn’t lie. It’s the floor — the bare minimum I’d send a friend toward.
Aura Verified is the next bar — and a harder one. It checks what the public record can’t see: who the medical director is, whether malpractice insurance is current, who’s actually holding the syringe, and whether the spa has written protocols for emergencies. Dr. Mark Sofonio hasn’t earned it yet — Aura would love to help them get there.
So — Screened is real, and revokable. Take it as a starting point, not a finish line. Ask the questions below before you book.
What to ask before you book.
- 01
Who’s the medical director?
California requires every med spa to have a licensed MD or DO supervising. If the front desk can’t name them, that’s your answer.
- 02
Who is actually injecting me?
RN, NP, PA, or MD — get the credentials in writing. Estheticians cannot legally inject. Ask before you sit in the chair.
- 03
What product brand and concentration?
Real Botox / Dysport / Juvederm with a lot number. If it’s vague ("a similar neurotoxin"), walk out.
I check the first two on every spa I screen. The third is on you, babe — but if you ask and they fumble it, that’s your sign.
