    MOXI Laser Skin Rejuvenation Treatment

    Moxi is a gentle fractionated laser designed to effectively treat the visible signs of aging and produce evenly toned, radiant skin in as little as a single treatment—although 2-4 are recommended. It’s ideal for all patients of all skin types who are just beginning their skin care journey or those looking for a light resurfacing option that can be performed anytime of year.


    MOXI Treatment Overview

    MOXI is a laser treatment that helps to treat the visible signs of aging and improves the overall appearance of your skin. Moxi comfortably delivers non-ablative laser energy to correct the initial signs of sun damage and aging—no matter the season or skin type—for a glowing and clear complexion. It targets water within cells to work with the body’s natural healing processes for a gentle treatment with little-to-no downtime.

    What MOXI does

    Moxi is a non-ablative laser, mild resurfacing treatment that helps smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, even out uneven tone and texture, and help with overall clarity--no matter the season or skin type!

    How to prepare for MOXI

    No usage of antibiotics for 2-weeks prior to receiving a MOXI treatment. Stop using retinoids 7 days prior and no other treatments for 1-week prior. Also, avoid harsh exfoliants 3 days prior to treatment. 

    What to expect from MOXI

    You can expect a moderate amount of heat while the laser is treating. The skin will be prepped with a numbing agent for 20-30 minutes prior to service. Post-treatment, the skin will be hot, maybe swollen and will start to feel a bit of sandpaper to the skin. This texture is completely normal and is called MENDS (microscopic epidermal necrotic debris). This is the actual peeling process but is at a microscopic level. This way you will not see any visible peeling, but will feel it. The pigmentation will appear darker during the 7-10 day healing and this is a completely normal expectation. After the 7-10 days the skin will appear brighter, tighter and more even!

    Postcare notes

    • Post-treatment cooling masks or handheld fans may be used to alleviate discomfort.
    • Over-the-counter itch and pain relievers may be used if necessary (i.e. Benadryl, Claritin, Tylenol, etc.)
    • Avoid sun exposure and self-tanning products for at least 2 weeks after treatment. Sun exposure can increase the risk of unwanted pigmentation
    • Apply sunscreen of at least 30 SPF, daily. Skin will be more sun sensitive following treatment.
    • Avoid treatments such as injections fillers, chemical peels or laser treatment for at least 2 weeks after treatment, or until completely healed. Avoid systemic steroids throughout the course of treatment.
    • Avoid the use of retinoids 1 week post treatment.
