When it comes to taking care of your skin, it often seems like nothing you do offers any benefits. Your skin is still breaking out, the wrinkles are constantly getting deeper, and each day in the sun results in even more sunspots. The only solution would be to remove the top layer of your skin, but you can’t do that without turning it into a horror movie. Or can you?

Enter MOXI™ laser, a procedure that can gently improve the cell rate turnover and offer that smooth glow you’ve been looking for. Whether you want to obtain clearer skin or wish to reduce signs of aging, the MOXI™ laser could become a great asset for you.

What Is MOXI™ Laser?

MOXI™ is a 1924 nm fractionated non-ablative laser that is designed to work on every skin type and for every age. Its purpose is to rejuvenate the skin while reducing signs of aging without dealing too much damage to the skin. It can help reduce a variety of skin conditions, whether we’re talking about creasing on your face or pigmentation marks. 

The MOXI™ laser is among the latest technologies to address common skin problems, just one treatment can bring significant results. Alongside procedures like BBL® HERO™ and Halo™ laser, Dr. Richard LeConey recommends MOXI™ for skin vitalization, giving you a more youthful look. From unwanted spots to elasticity issues, MOXI™ can be used on any area of your body to offer long-term skin smoothness. The treatment is like a combination of BBL® HERO™ and Halo™, as it reduces the appearance of acne breakouts while smoothing the resulting scars.

The warmth produced by the laser will apply controlled damage to the cells above, targeting one fraction of the skin at a time. Once destroyed, those cells will be naturally removed by the immune system, making way for the healthy cells below to come forward. The process will also trigger your body’s natural healing response, resulting in a higher production of collagen and elastin.

Top Benefits of MOXI™ Laser

MOXI™ laser comes with a series of benefits, which include the following:

1. It Has a Short Recovery Time

One of the best parts about the MOXI™ laser is that the recovery period is very short. Since MOXI™ is both non-ablative and fractionated, it doesn’t deliver constant laser power. Instead, it only targets fractions of the skin at the time, focusing on the layers underneath. As a result, the procedure will bring no more discomfort than your average mild sunburn.

2. It Reduces Excess Pigmentation

MOXI™ laser can penetrate the deeper layers of your dermis, breaking down the cells that contain excess melanin. Once these cells are destroyed, your lymphatic system will work to “flush” them out of your body, signaling for a new production of healthy cells. This makes it a good option for patients who are struggling with melasma, age spots, sun spots, and more.

3. It Works for Darker Skin Tones

Some laser procedures can cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation in people with darker skin tones, especially when delivered in excessive amounts. That said, MOXI™ is gentler compared to other types of lasers and gives the skin enough time to cool before delivering the next “fraction” of the laser. This reduces the chances of you developing excess pigmentation as a result of the procedure.

4. It Improves Skin Smoothness and Elasticity

MOXI™ reaches past the top layer of the skin, where the new collagen cells are produced. By creating micro-lesions with the laser, it starts your body’s healing system, which responds by creating more collagen and elastin. This can offer tighter, wrinkle-free skin while reducing surgical and acne scars.

5. It Works on Numerous Body Areas

Most lasers are only designed to reduce imperfections on your face. However, other areas of your body are equally exposed to UV rays, showing signs of damage. As a result, the treatment can easily be administered to areas like your neck, arms, chest, hands, and legs. 

The Bottom Line

MOXI™ laser can be a very effective solution for rejuvenating your skin and making you look more youthful. You just need to seize the moment and get the treatment. Contact the Institute of Anti-Aging Medicine and Skin Spa and set up an appointment for MOXI™ laser!
