Introducing the newest machine in fractioned wavelength technology, specially designed with all patients in mind. Moxi is ideal for new patients starting their skincare journey or anyone looking to add an amazing treatment to help maintain their results from previous treatments at Aspire. As a gentle, safe, and year-round procedure, Moxi is beneficial for those wishing to address uneven pigmentation, tone and texture, sun damage, or aging. This new technology is good for both “rejuvenation,” to stave off the visible signs of aging before they appear, and long-term maintenance, to extend the results of more aggressive laser & light procedures and maintain the appearance of healthy skin over longer periods.
At Aspire Plastic Surgery we require a consultation before anyone is able to have a treatment or procedure done. It is in this meeting that we will assess your concerns and goals to determine if a treatment, like Moxi, is right for you. To prepare for your Moxi treatment, you should avoid prolonged sun exposure, including tanning beds, for at least 7 days. This includes sun tanning creams or sprays and hair removal creams. Certain active ingredients in skin care, like retinol, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and benzoyl peroxide, can interact with treatment and should be avoided for 14 days leading up to your Moxi appointment. Lastly, you should abstain from taking any blood thinning medication for up to 7 days before your treatment.
To begin your Moxi laser procedure, your skin will be thoroughly cleansed. A numbing cream will then be applied to the treatment area to ensure you remain comfortable during the duration of the treatment. In addition to making sure you are physically comfortable; you will be asked to wear protective eyewear to keep you safe from the bright laser. The Moxi handpiece is then moved over the skin whilst emitting controlled light energy to target skin irregularities. The laser effectively damages these irregular skin cells, and the body works to naturally dispose of them.
Moxi is a non-ablative laser treatment, meaning that it does not cause any physical damage to the skin. This is a great way to experience results without much downtime. Your skin may appear red for up to three days following treatment, but the gentle nature of this procedure means that you do not have to take any time off to recover.
Moxi is a gentle procedure, that is a great introductory treatment for those that are new to skin rejuvenating treatments, but this does not mean it is not effective. You will notice the results immediately after Moxi treatments. The best way to experience long-term results is by having a series of treatments done. Patients usually require 3-4 Moxi sessions to experience optimal results.
Moxi is a gentle treatment with very few serious risks or side effects. The common ones include redness, mild discomfort, a slight burning sensation, and a flaky-dry texture during your recovery.
If you are interested in experiencing the skin rejuvenating benefits of traditional aesthetic procedures but without the downtime, Moxi might be just the right procedure for you.
