Name: Kristina M. Sogocio, MD
Statement: I am an Ob/Gyn who has been in solo private practice for the last 13 years. I expanded my services to include advance skin care, medical grade aesthetics, and pellet BHRT. I also provide vaginal rejuvenation treatments such as V-Tone, Forma-V, and Morpheus-V. I have the distinct skills to assess and advise patients to find the best combination of treatments to meet their skin and overall wellness goals. As a female physician, I am able to relate to many of the concerns and insecurities that many of my patients have. Wellness care is my focus and my passion. There is no better fulfillment than successfully guiding women to feel their best selves! My practice, MOCI Wellness, is located in the heart of Merced, California and I look forward to welcoming you!

Can a dark spot appear after laser hair removal?
Hyperpigmentation after LHR
Feb 19, 2023
Thank you for your inquiry.
The short answer to your question is yes–LHR can indeed cause hyperpigmentation. This is often due to incorrect settings being used for the appropriate Skin tone/color (eg. higher risk in Fitz 4-6 skin types). Additionally, this can happen with older LHR devices. The newer technology, like DIolaze XL by InMode Aesthetics (available with their different devices), has a built-in cooling mechanism that helps to prevent over heating of the skin. The technology also…
Would vaginal rejuvenation help with tightening after total hysterectomy?
Vaginal rejuvenation after Hysterectomy
Feb 19, 2023
Hello–thank you for your inquiry. In response to your question, the short answer is “yes.” Vaginal Rejuvenation is just that: for the vagina; treatments are not meant to target the cervix. Thus, having had the cervix removed does not affect your opportunities to treat your vaginal tissue. In addition, the external area outside the vagina (referred as the vulva, which also includes the labia) can be treated with some Vaginal Rejuvenation procedures. For example, the Morpheus 8V and Forma-V…
Microneedling RF options for patient with gold allergy?
Microneedling alternative
Jan 8, 2023
Thank you for your inquiry. You could try a combined SkinPen treatment (contraindicated in those with a stainless steel allergy) with a FORMA treatment (by InMode Aesthetics). The SkinPen has a maximum depth of treatment of 2.5 mm and the FORMA handpiece delivers RF energy with no needles. However, since you mention only having “minor” laxity, you could also do an extended series of just FORMA treatments at the neck (but you might as well include the face too!) for the tightening effect. My…
Can Forma tighten loose skin due to filler stretching?
Skin tightening
Jan 8, 2023
So sorry about your unfortunate experience with dermal filler. I’m not entirely sure the “fanning technique” with a HA filler was the appropriate approach for your lower face treatment; but since I do not know of any the original details regarding that encounter, I cannot comment further.
However, skin tightening can be achieved by either FORMA or Morpheus 8, or any RF-based treatment. Pics would be helpful to see the facial areas of concern. Additionally, a laser-based treatment would also…
Recommendation needed – how can these scars be removed from my face?
Scar removal
Oct 6, 2022
Thank you for sharing your photo and inquiry. From the photo you shared, I would strongly recommend a microneedling treatment. There is well established studies that show microneedling to be an effective approach to reduce and/or eliminate scarring/scars, improved overall texture, decrease pore size, and help reduce fine lines and superficial wrinkles. The SkinPen is a good introductory microneedling treatment that can target a skin depth up to 2.5mm. This treatment can be combined with…
