About MOXI™

How MOXI™ Works
MOXI™ delivers fractionated 1927 nm laser energy into the skin, targeting water within the tissue and creating controlled microscopic treatment zones. This activates the skin’s natural renewal response, allowing older or damaged cells to gradually move toward the surface while supporting the development of healthier new skin cells.
During the healing process, tiny dark dots known as MENDs may appear. These treated cells naturally rise to the surface and shed, revealing brighter and smoother looking skin underneath.
What to Expect
Treatment Time
Approximately 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area and selected treatment level.
Recommended Treatment Plan
For best results, a series of 5 to 6 treatments spaced approximately 4 weeks apart may be recommended. Maintenance treatments can be scheduled as needed based on your skin concerns, goals, and personalized treatment plan.
Downtime
MOXI™ involves minimal social downtime rather than no downtime. Immediately after treatment, the skin may appear red and feel warm, tight, or mildly swollen.
Over the following several days, the skin may develop a bronzed appearance, temporary darkening of pigmentation, and a dry or sandpaper like texture. These changes are part of the normal renewal process and typically begin to shed within 5 to 7 days.
