How MOXI® Treatment Works

MOXI® is a non-ablative fractional laser treatment designed to improve skin tone, texture, and overall skin health with minimal downtime. MOXI® uses advanced laser technology to stimulate collagen production while targeting early signs of aging, sun damage, uneven pigmentation, and dull skin.

Step 1: Personalized Skin Assessment

Your appointment begins with a consultation to evaluate your skin concerns, texture, tone, and aesthetic goals. From there, we create a customized treatment plan designed around your skin type and desired results.

Step 2: Customized Treatment Planning

The treatment areas are carefully assessed to target concerns such as sun damage, uneven texture, pigmentation, fine lines, and early signs of visible aging, while maintaining natural-looking skin rejuvenation.

Step 3: Advanced Fractional Laser Treatment

Using the Sciton® MOXI® laser, the laser delivers controlled energy into the skin to stimulate collagen production and encourage healthy skin renewal with minimal disruption to surrounding tissue.

Step 4: Gradual Skin Renewal

Over the following days and weeks, your skin continues to heal and regenerate, revealing a smoother texture, brighter tone, and a refreshed overall appearance.
