Kansas City Aesthetic Nurse Injector & Founder of SOKO Aesthetics

Sophia Garozzo Koury, RN, is a nationally trained aesthetic nurse injector, Founder, and Lead Injector of SOKO Aesthetics & Wellness, a boutique medical aesthetics practice serving Leawood and the greater Kansas City area.

Known for her natural, full-face approach, Sophia specializes in facial balancing and non-surgical facial rejuvenation. Rather than focusing on a single feature, she evaluates the face as a whole—creating thoughtful, individualized treatment plans designed to restore balance, enhance each patient’s natural features, and help them look refreshed without looking overdone.

Her combination of clinical expertise, artistic judgment, honesty, and warm bedside manner has earned her a loyal following throughout Kansas City. In 2026, Sophia was voted Best Injector in Kansas City in The Pitch’s city-wide Best of KC contest.

Born and raised in Kansas City, Sophia grew up surrounded by the hospitality of her family’s longtime Kansas City restaurant tradition. Her Italian roots, Lebanese family traditions, and belief that people should feel genuinely cared for have shaped the experience she has created at SOKO.

For Sophia, aesthetics is about more than treatments. It is about building relationships, creating an environment where people feel comfortable and understood, and delivering results that still feel unmistakably like them.

At SOKO, patients are treated less like appointments on a schedule and more like guests—an approach rooted in warmth, attention to detail, advanced training, and a commitment to exceptional care.
