Your Doctor.
Every Visit.
Experience the difference of physician-performed aesthetic treatments. Not a nurse, not a technician. Dr. Recalde, every single time.
Dr. Violeta Recalde is a board-certified physician with over 20 years of medical experience. After a distinguished career as a hospitalist (managing the most complex inpatient cases, from multi-system organ failure to post-surgical complications), she transitioned to aesthetic medicine to bring that same clinical rigor into a more personal, patient-centered setting.
Born and raised in South America, Dr. Recalde completed her medical education before moving to the United States to further her career. Hospital medicine gave her an unusually deep command of human anatomy, drug interactions, and how the body heals, a foundation that directly shapes how she approaches every injectable, every laser parameter, and every treatment plan at MedGlo.
Unlike most medical spas, MedGlo operates under a sole-provider model: Dr. Recalde performs every treatment personally, from initial consultation to final injection. No nurse practitioners, no rotating staff, no technicians. When you book with MedGlo, you see Dr. Recalde, every single time.
Fluent in both English and Spanish, Dr. Recalde serves the full South Orange County community. She believes in honest timelines, realistic expectations, and results that look like you, only better. Her approach is conservative by design: she would rather add a little than do too much.
