Moxi Laser Resurfacing

Step into the light of renewal and radiance.

Moxi Laser Resurfacing Explained

Moxi delivers fractionated laser energy to create micro-coagulation zones which the body then repairs, replacing damaged cells with fresh new ones. Moxi is designed to provide tonal and textural improvements to your face with low downtime, resulting in skin renewal.

How does Moxi Laser Resurfacing work?

Moxi delivers laser energy to disrupt a portion of the skin, which stimulates old skin cells to shed and new collagen to be produced. Moxi is designed to provide tonal and textural improvements to your face with low downtime, resulting in skin renewal.

What does Moxi Laser Resurfacing target?

MOXI focuses on rejuvenation and overall skin quality, but can also be used to address specific conditions. Moxi is a great way to treat small areas of concern including texture, fine lines, and wrinkles or prevent skin damage or signs of aging before they occur.

How many treatments will I need?

It is recommended patients schedule a series of 3-4 Moxi treatments scheduled 4-6 weeks apart. After you successfully complete your treatment plan, you can easily maintain your results with follow-up Moxi laser sessions once or twice a year.

How should I prepare for the treatment?

It is imperative to protect the treated skin from the sun for a full 2-4 weeks prior to laser skin treatments as well as 4 weeks after. We recommend the use of a physical sunscreen of at least 30 SPF (preferably containing titanium dioxide or zinc oxide). Any tan or “color” from the sun can cause adverse side effects like burns which could lead to undesirable and potentially permanent outcomes.
Artificial tanners must be stopped 2 weeks before your treatment on your face and 3 weeks before any body treatments.
Discontinue aspirin for 10 days prior to an BBL treatment. Discontinue ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) and Vitamin E capsules 5 days prior to the procedure. Using aspirin or ibuprofen during the week before treatment may lead to increased redness or bruising and failure for redness and capillaries to resolve with treatment. If you are using aspirin under the direction of another medical provider, please discuss with him/her prior to stopping medication.
Do not use retinol, Retin A (tretinoin), adapalene, retinoic acid, or glycolic acid products 5 days before treatment.
Avoid any chemical peels for 2 weeks prior to treatment.
If you are prone to cold sores, let your provider know and they will call in a medication to prevent a new onset of cold sores after treatment.
If anything changes in your medical history, please alert your provider prior to your scheduled appointment.

What should I expect the day of treatment?

Photos will be taken so that your progress can be documented
Topical Anesthetic will be applied to help with comfort during treatment
After about 30 minutes, the treatment will begin. The treatment itself only takes about 15-20 minutes.
The skin will feel warm and will be red after treatment.

What should I expect post treatment?

MOXI has a minimal recovery period that requires little to no downtime. You will experience some redness and warming of the treated area for approximately 3-4 days after a MOXI treatment.

Tiny brown spots called MENDS (microscopic epidermal necrotic debris) typically appear 1-3 days after a MOXI treatment. These appear as tiny brown dots on the skin. MENDS are part of the healing process to rejuvenate your skin. They will have a sandpaper-like texture and will fall off on their own within a week. These are the damaged skin cells coming to the surface and you will be left with glowing skin.

How much does Moxi Laser Resurfacing cost?

Cost of treatment: The cost of the treatment varies depending on the location and size of the area to be treated as well as the number of treatments needed. Each treatment plan is customized to meet your individual needs. We offer complimentary consultations where we will do an evaluation of your skin and address your areas of concern.
