How Moxi laser works
Moxi is a non-ablative fractionated laser designed to revitalize the skin by creating micro-coagulation zones that trigger the body’s natural repair process. Unlike more aggressive lasers, Moxi gently targets the surface layers to correct early signs of sun damage and uneven pigmentation without significant downtime
As the skin heals, it replaces dull, damaged cells with fresh, healthy tissue, resulting in a noticeably brighter and smoother complexion. It is the ideal “pre-juvenation” treatment, perfect for maintaining a clear, radiant glow and improving overall skin texture across all skin types
FAQs
Q
What is Moxi laser?
A
MOXI is a fractionated 1927nm wavelength laser that creates micro-coagulation zones in the skin. This triggers the body’s natural healing process to replace damaged cells with fresh, new skin. Unlike the CO2 laser, it doesn’t “remove” the top layer of skin, making it much gentler and safer for all skin types
Q
Who is the best candidate for Moxi laser?
A
MOXI was designed with the modern patient in mind. It is perfect for:
All Skin Tones: Unlike many lasers, MOXI is safe for Fitzpatrick scales I–VI
Younger Patients: Those looking to prevent signs of aging before they become permanent
Maintenance Seekers: Anyone who wants to keep their skin looking bright without a week of downtime
Melasma Patients: MOXI is one of the few lasers that is gentle enough to help manage melasma and hormonal pigment
Q
What does the treatment feel like?
A
MOXI is very well-tolerated. Most patients describe it as a “prickly” or “warm” sensation. We apply a topical numbing cream before the procedure to ensure you stay comfortable. The actual laser session takes only 12 to 15 minutes for the full face
Q
What is the downtime for Moxi laser?
A
There is minimal to no downtime. You will look quite red (like a moderate sunburn) on the day of treatment, but this usually subsides by the next morning. You can apply makeup and return to your normal routine just 24 hours after your session
Q
What is the "MENDS" phase?
A
After a MOXI treatment, you will experience what we call MENDS (Microscopic Epidermal Necrotic Debris)
On days 2 and 3, your skin will feel like fine sandpaper. You will see tiny dark spots (the “mends”) where the laser worked. These naturally slough off within 4 to 5 days, revealing brighter, smoother skin underneath
Q
Is Moxi a safe treatment for all skin types?
A
Moxi is a safe and gentle laser for all skin types, all year round
Q
How long does it take to see results from Moxi?
A
It takes about one month to see full results from Moxi because that’s how long it takes your skin cells to turn over revealing a newer and refreshed skin
Q
How long do the results last?
A
Results can last 6-12 months after the initial series of treatments. Longevity can vary depending on the patient’s skin conditions and lifestyle
Q
How many treatments would I need?
A
Number of treatments required depends on the skin condition and the desire results. While one session is beneficial, we typically recommend an initial series of 3 sessions (spaced out by 4-6 weeks) to reach optimal results and then quarterly maintenance thereafter
Q
What is the difference between Moxi and BBL?
A
In very broad terms, BBL treats tone while Moxi treats texture
BBL uses light waves to target pigmentation including sun spots, redness, and broken capillaries. It can also treat acne and improve overall skin quality
Moxi is a gentle laser that resurfaces the skin and provide rejuvenation without the excessive downtime of a fully ablative laser treatment. It is the only treatment can safely treat pigmentation for all skin types including the darker skin and patients with melasma. Moxi helps improve skin texture, appearance of pores, fine lines, and dark spots leaving your skin looking healthier and more vibrant
Q
Can I receive the treatment in the summer time?
A
Moxi is safe all-year round! While we recommend avoiding direct sun exposure for 1 – 2 weeks after the treatment and re-apply sun screen every 2 hours, it is a safe treatment during the summer
U Med approach
At U Med Spa, our approach to MOXI™ laser skin resurfacing is centered on “pre-juvenation” and maintaining a year-round glow. MOXI is designed to be a gentle yet effective solution for correcting initial signs of sun damage, uneven skin tone, and texture with minimal to no downtime. It is the perfect “lunchtime” laser for patients looking to refresh their complexion without the recovery period of more aggressive treatments
We offer complimentary consultations for all patients who wish to discuss their specific skin goals. Whether you are looking for a standalone glow-up or want to pair MOXI with other treatments like BBL Hero, our providers focus on a customized plan that fits your lifestyle. Our goal is to provide a fast, comfortable experience that leaves your skin looking vibrant and rejuvenated
