Moxi Magic: The Gentle Laser That Transforms Skin Texture and Tone

 5 Things to Know About the Moxi® Laser: Your Year-Round Solution for Radiant Skin

You didn’t wake up with wrinkles, sunspots, or uneven texture overnight. But one morning, it’s there—the glow is dimmer, your pores look bigger, and a few fine lines seem deeper than you remember. You want that lit-from-within skin again but don’t have time to peel, flake, or hide from the sun. That’s exactly when the Moxi® laser becomes your new best friend.

Safe for all skin types and tones, even if you have a tan, Moxi is a fractional, non-ablative laser that rejuvenates your skin gently—but powerfully. It boosts collagen and elastin production, improves texture and tone, reduces pore size, and fades pigmentation—all with minimal downtime. It’s the perfect treatment whether you’re starting your skin health journey or looking for a low-maintenance way to maintain results.

Here are the five things you need to know about Moxi Laser—and why it’s one of the most versatile skin treatments available today:

1. Moxi Stimulates Collagen and Elastin for Smoother, Firmer Skin

Moxi is powered by a 1927 nm wavelength, which gently heats the upper layers of skin to kickstart your body’s natural collagen and elastin production—the proteins that keep your skin plump, resilient, and youthful. As we age, collagen production drops by about 1% each year starting in our mid-20s.¹

Moxi helps counteract this by targeting early signs of aging, including fine lines, loss of elasticity, and textural changes, without damaging the deeper dermis. It’s ideal for patients who want to prevent or reverse these changes without undergoing aggressive resurfacing.

2. It’s Safe for All Skin Types—Even Tanned Skin

Most laser treatments require avoiding sun exposure for weeks before and after, especially for patients with darker skin tones or recent sun exposure. Moxi is different.

Because it’s a non-ablative fractional laser, it doesn’t remove the top layer of skin—instead, it creates controlled micro-injuries below the surface. That means no open wounds, less inflammation, and a dramatically reduced risk of hyperpigmentation, making it safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types and even suitable for tanned skin.²

You can finally treat your skin year-round without putting vacations, pool days, or outdoor hobbies on hold.

3. A Series of 3+ Treatments Gives the Best Results

One session can brighten and smooth your skin, but for visible transformation—like softened wrinkles, improved tone, and tighter pores—you’ll need a series of three to four treatments, spaced four to six weeks apart. Deeper pigmentation or texture issues may require more treatments.

Think of Moxi like going to the gym: consistency is key. And just like strength training builds muscle over time, each Moxi session builds collagen for long-term skin health.

Patients often follow up with maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months to keep skin looking vibrant and youthful. Some even combine Moxi with other treatments like Broadband Light (BBL) or HydraFacials to amplify results.

4. Downtime Is Minimal—Back to Life Within Hours

One of the biggest benefits of Moxi is its ease of recovery. After your treatment, you might look slightly pink—like a mild sunburn—for a few hours. Over the next day or two, your skin may feel dry or rough, but there’s no open wounds like with traditional resurfacing lasers.

Most patients apply makeup the next day and return to regular activities immediately. That’s why Moxi is often called a “lunchtime laser.”

What’s more, because there’s no significant downtime, you won’t have to take off work, or cancel plans.

5. Moxi Treats More Than Just the Face—Glow from Head to Toe

Moxi isn’t limited to facial rejuvenation. It’s a favorite for treating the neck, chest, arms, hands, legs, and even the back—all areas that are often neglected but show visible signs of aging or sun damage.

Have crepey skin on your chest? Freckles or spots on your shoulders? Uneven texture on your thighs? Moxi can safely and effectively improve them all.

Here’s something most people don’t realize: Moxi also helps maintain the results of other treatments, such as HALO, BBL, or microneedling. It’s like insurance for your skin investment—keeping your results fresher, longer.

Bonus Tip: Pair Moxi With Medical-Grade Skincare for Enhanced Results

Clinical studies show that laser treatments paired with targeted physician grade skincare—like topical antioxidants,  Retin-A, hydroquinone, etc. —can significantly boost results.³
