MOXI is an innovative, non-ablative fractional laser treatment designed to revitalize and rejuvenate your skin with minimal downtime. This gentle yet effective procedure uses advanced laser technology to target signs of sun damage, uneven skin tone and early signs of aging on all skin types.
MOXI works by creating thousands of microscopic treatment zones in the skin, stimulating your body’s natural healing abilities to produce new, healthier skin cells. As a “prejuvenation” treatment, MOXI is perfect for individuals looking to maintain youthful skin or address the initial signs of skin aging.
MOXI offers numerous advantages for those seeking to improve their skin’s appearance, including:
MOXI utilizes a 1927 nm wavelength laser to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This non-ablative fractionated laser technology precisely targets water in the skin to create thousands of microscopic treatment zones.
As the MOXI handpiece glides across your skin, it delivers laser energy in a fractional pattern. This means that only a fraction of the skin is treated, leaving surrounding tissue intact. The micro-injuries stimulate your skin’s natural healing process, promoting collagen production and cellular turnover.
The treated areas form microscopic epidermal necrotic debris (MENDs), which gradually slough off over the next few days to reveal fresher, more vibrant skin underneath. This process helps to reduce pigmentation issues, improve skin texture and give your complexion a more youthful, radiant appearance.
Your MOXI treatment experience at Willow Med Spa & Salon is designed to be comfortable and efficient. Here’s what you can expect during your visit:
MOXI effectively targets and reduces the appearance of sun-induced damage, including sunspots, uneven pigmentation and melasma. The laser energy breaks down excess melanin, leading to a more even skin tone.
By stimulating collagen production and cellular turnover, MOXI helps smooth out rough skin texture and balance skin tone, resulting in a more refined and radiant complexion.
While primarily designed for prejuvenation, MOXI can help soften the appearance of fine lines and prevent the formation of new wrinkles by activating the skin’s natural collagen rebuilding process.
MOXI rejuvenates lackluster skin by promoting the growth of new, healthy skin cells. This results in a brighter, more youthful-looking complexion.
The laser treatment can help minimize the appearance of enlarged pores by promoting skin tightening and improving overall skin texture.
While MOXI is not primarily designed for skin tightening, it can help improve minor skin laxity by boosting the generation of collagen in the deeper layers of your skin, which can lead to a subtle tightening effect over time.
At Willow Med Spa & Salon, your MOXI consultation is a comprehensive experience designed to tailor the treatment to your needs. The process begins with one of our expert providers discussing your aesthetic goals with you in detail. New patients also receive a complimentary Complexion Analysis with VISIA, a state-of-the-art imaging system that evaluates your skin’s health by mapping out factors like wrinkles, pigmentation and UV damage. This analysis provides valuable insights, such as your skin’s true age, enabling us to create a highly customized treatment plan. Based on this information and your specific concerns, your specialist will determine the appropriate number of treatments and settings to achieve optimal results.
One of the major advantages of MOXI is its minimal downtime. Most patients can return to their usual routine immediately after treatment. However, you may experience some redness and a warm sensation in the treated area similar to a sunburn for a few hours post-treatment.
In the days following your MOXI session, you may notice small, sandpaper-like dots on your skin. These are the MENDs (microscopic epidermal necrotic debris) and are a normal part of the healing process. They typically slough off within three to five days, revealing fresher skin underneath.
To support the healing process:
You may notice an improvement in your skin’s texture and tone within a few days after your first MOXI treatment. However, optimal results typically develop over time as your skin produces new collagen and elastin.
Most patients see significant improvements in their skin’s appearance after a series of three to four treatments, spaced about four to five weeks apart. Your Willow provider will create a personalized treatment plan based on your skin concerns and goals.
The longevity of your MOXI results can vary depending on several factors, including your age, skin type, lifestyle and skincare routine. Many patients enjoy the benefits of their MOXI treatments for several months.
To maintain and prolong your results:
Remember that MOXI is often most effective as part of a comprehensive skincare regimen. Your provider may recommend combining MOXI with other treatments or products to enhance and extend your results.
