What Is MOXI?

MOXI laser is a powerful, yet gentle fractionated laser treatment for patients who are looking for a skin rejuvenation procedure that can help correct sun damage and deliver a brighter, clearer complexion. By addressing the initial signs of aging before they become noticeable, MOXI is an excellent prejuvenation treatment to help maintain youthful skin.

 

As a non-ablative laser, MOXI laser treatment uses gentle heat to encourage collagen production, which can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, and acne scarring while promoting skin elasticity for a fresher, more radiant appearance that continues to improve over time. It is an ideal option for those patients who prefer mild, yet effective treatment over traditional laser resurfacing treatments. With minimal discomfort and downtime, MOXI laser treatments help address the initial signs of aging before they become noticeable.

Who Is a Good Candidate for MOXI Treatments?

MOXI laser treatments may be a good option for patients looking to refresh the appearance of their skin and prevent visible signs of aging, as well as individuals who want to address concerns with pigmentation, texture, tone, and early signs of aging. The best candidates are those who are in good overall health, have a positive attitude, and understand the risks and benefits of laser treatments.

 

As a gentle and effective procedure, MOXI laser is a great introductory treatment and is well-tolerated by most patients, even those with sensitive skin. It is also safe for patients of all skin types and skin tones, including those who have dark or tanned skin tones. MOXI laser treatment is an ideal option for those looking for preventative skincare treatments.

 

Patients who are not suitable candidates for MOXI include those who:

 

  • Have a rare photosensitive skin disease
  • Are on medications like high dose Accutane or photosensitizing medicines
  • Have open wounds including recurrent herpes virus
  • Are pregnant or immunosuppressed

What Can MOXI Laser Treat?

As a gentle and versatile treatment, MOXI laser can effectively improve the appearance of many skin concerns, including:

 

  • Acne scars
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Sunspots and age spots
  • Uneven pigmentation, including melasma
  • Sun damage
  • Dull-looking skin
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Uneven texture

 

Depending on your unique concerns, our experts may recommend combining MOXI laser treatment with other skin rejuvenation procedures to achieve optimal results based on your skin’s condition, your lifestyle, and your aesthetic goals.

Can MOXI Laser Treatment Be Used on Other Areas of the Body?

MOXI laser can be used to treat multiple areas, not just the face. Common treatment zones include the face, neck, and chest to address photoaging, tone, and texture. Many patients also choose to treat hands and forearms to help minimize sun damage and visible spots, creating a more uniform look between the face and body. For some candidates, MOXI laser treatment can be used on the back, shoulders, or legs to refresh dull, rough skin and improve overall radiance. Your provider will create a treatment plan for each area to balance effectiveness with minimal downtime, ensuring a consistent, natural-looking glow from head to toe. If you are unsure where to start, a consultation can map out a treatment plan to prioritize your top concerns.

MOXI Laser vs. BBL (Broadband Light)

MOXI laser is a fractional, non-ablative treatment designed to boost collagen and refine texture and tone while BBL (Broadband Light) uses high-intensity pulses of light to target pigment and redness in the skin. MOXI laser is excellent for mitigating early texture changes and improving overall luminosity, while BBL is ideal for treating brown spots and diffused redness. Many patients benefit from a combined approach, using MOXI laser to smooth and brighten and BBL to lift discoloration for a clearer, more even complexion. Your provider will determine whether to stage these treatments or pair them in the same care plan based on skin type, sun exposure, and goals to help you achieve radiant results.

At Marmur Medical, our expert team will tailor every MOXI laser treatment to meet your unique skincare needs, walking with you through each step in the process with care and intention. We have provided some guidelines to help you prepare for your best skin yet: 

Before treatment

It is essential to be in good overall health before any laser procedure. Each MOXI laser treatment is customized for your best results; however, there are steps we recommend taking to ensure your skin is ready for treatment:

 

  • Avoid sun exposure for two weeks, including tanning beds and sunless tanners.
  • Do not wax the skin or use depilatory creams for two weeks.
  • Discuss your health history, including any history of cold sores, so that we can prescribe an antiviral medication to take beforehand.
  • Smoking can hamper the body’s healing processes. Quitting smoking can help maintain your MOXI laser results.
  • Avoid taking blood-thinning medications, supplements, or vitamins that increase bleeding or bruising risks for a week.
  • Discontinue the use of products containing retinol, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, alpha-hydroxy acid, lipo-hydroxy acid, or benzoyl peroxide.
  • Remain well-hydrated and avoid alcohol or caffeine for up to 48 hours to avoid additional bleeding and bruising.
  • Come to your MOXI laser appointment with clean, moisturized skin.

During treatment

Because MOXI is a gentle laser that is well-tolerated by most patients, a topical anesthetic is not generally required. However, be sure to discuss your pain concerns with your provider before beginning treatment.

 

You will be provided with eye protection prior to beginning treatment Your skin will be cleansed, then your provider will guide the MOXI handpiece across the treatment area. Depending on the extent of the treatment area, MOXI laser treatment typically lasts 15-30 minutes.

After treatment

Following your MOXI laser session, you may experience the sensation of warmth and a slight sunburn-like redness that will generally be resolved within approximately 3-4 days. As MOXI requires minimal recovery time, most patients can usually resume most normal activities immediately.

 

You may experience some swelling, dryness, or itching in the first few days following your MOXI laser treatment. For most patients, these effects are typically mild and should be resolved without intervention in a few days. During recovery, it is important to be gentle with your skin, apply moisturizers as recommended, and avoid scrubbing or using harsh products on the skin.

 

It is also important to avoid strenuous exercise or other activities that can cause sweating for 48-72 hours after treatment to avoid irritating the treatment site(s). We recommend that you avoid wearing makeup for at least 24 hours after your MOXI laser treatment and protect your skin by avoiding sun exposure for at least a month. If sun exposure is unavoidable, we advise wearing sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher and utilizing protective clothing.
