MOXI utilizes non-ablative laser technology with a special laser at 1927 nm to target the top layer of the skin. This precise energy stimulates collagen production, addresses signs of aging, and improves skin texture and tone without the need for extensive downtime.

Can darker skin tones undergo MOXI?

Yes! MOXI is suitable for all skin types. But for your peace of mind, you can schedule a consultation with us for your concerns regarding your skin tone.

What skin concerns does MOXI address?

MOXI is effective in addressing a range of skin concerns, including poor skin texture, wrinkles, uneven complexion, signs of sun damage, melasma and the appearance of mild skin laxity. Its versatility makes it suitable for various skincare needs.

Is MOXI safe for all skin types?

Yes, MOXI is completely safe for all skin types. The treatment’s three different energy settings can be adjusted to accommodate individual skin characteristics, ensuring a personalized and safe experience.

Is there downtime after MOXI Laser Treatment?

MOXI is known for minimal downtime. While individual experiences may vary, many patients can return to their regular activities shortly after the session. Some may also experience mild redness or swelling, which typically subsides within a short period. Make up can be applied the next day.

Can MOXI be combined with other treatments?

Yes, MOXI can be combined with other treatments for enhanced and synergistic results. We may recommend combining MOXI with treatments like BBL HERO to address specific skincare concerns comprehensively.

How many MOXI sessions are typically recommended?

The number of MOXI sessions recommended varies based on individual skin concerns and goals. During the consultation, your provider will assess your skin and discuss a personalized treatment plan, including the recommended number of sessions.

When will I see the results from MOXI?

Results from MOXI Laser Treatment are often noticeable within a few weeks, as the stimulated collagen production continues to improve skin texture and tone. However, individual responses may vary, and your provider will provide realistic expectations during the consultation.

Is MOXI suitable for everyone?

MOXI is generally suitable for all individuals starting their skincare journey or those looking to improve their existing routine. However, individual candidacy will be determined during a comprehensive consultation with our skincare professional at Fade Aesthetics.

MOXI Laser in Hilliard, OH

MOXI™ is a gentle, non-ablative laser made by Sciton that refreshes the top layers of the skin. It's designed for uneven tone, rough texture, and early sun damage, with short downtime and sessions that take about 10 minutes. At Fade Aesthetics and Wellness in Hilliard, we use MOXI both to treat early signs of aging and to help prevent them.

What MOXI Treats

MOXI works on the surface of the skin, where tone and texture concerns show up first. Our providers commonly use it for:

Uneven complexion and dullness

Signs of sun damage, like freckling and blotchy tone

Rough texture

Fine lines

Melasma, as part of a provider-guided plan

Mild skin laxity

Why People Choose MOXI

MOXI’s main appeal is balance: noticeable improvement without the downtime of more aggressive lasers. It tends to suit people who:

Want prevention

Many patients start MOXI in their 20s or 30s to address early sun damage before it deepens

Have busy schedules

Treatment itself takes about 8 to 10 minutes, plus numbing time, and most people return to their routine the next day.

Want steady maintenance

MOXI can be repeated in a series or used a few times a year to keep skin looking fresh.

Prefer a gentler start

It’s a good introduction to laser treatments for people new to them

How MOXI Works

MOXI uses a 1927-nanometer laser to create tiny treatment zones in the upper layers of the skin, leaving the surrounding skin intact. This prompts your skin to shed damaged cells and renew itself. Because it’s non-ablative, it doesn’t remove the skin’s surface, which keeps recovery short. Your provider can adjust MOXI’s energy settings for your skin and goals, which is part of why it’s often an option for a wider range of skin tones than many stronger lasers.

MOXI vs. BBL HERO vs. RF Microneedling

These three treatments aren’t versions of the same thing. Each is designed for a different kind of concern.

	MOXI	BBL HERO	RF microneedling
Main target	Surface tone and texture	Color: sun spots and redness	Deeper texture, scars, and pores
How it works	Fractional non-ablative laser	Broadband light	Needles plus radiofrequency heat
Typical downtime	About a day of redness	Minimal; spots darken, then flake	About 3 to 7 days

MOXI and BBL HERO are often paired, with BBL targeting spots and redness and MOXI refining texture. If acne scars or large pores are your main concern, RF microneedling may be a better fit.

What to Expect

Before

A topical numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable.

During

The treatment takes about 8 to 10 minutes. Most people feel warmth and a prickling sensation.

After

Your skin will look red and feel warm, similar to a mild sunburn. Most people have about a day of downtime and can wear makeup after 24 hours. Over the next several days, skin may feel rough and look slightly darker in spots as treated cells work their way out.

Results

Many patients notice brighter, smoother skin within 5 to 7 days, with more improvement over the following weeks.

Protect your skin from the sun after treatment and between sessions, since sun exposure can undo progress and raise the risk of pigment changes.

Planning Your MOXI Series

One MOXI session gives skin a refresh, but most goals take a series. We usually recommend 3 to 4 sessions spaced 4 to 5 weeks apart, and your provider will adjust that based on your skin. After your series, many patients schedule MOXI a few times a year for maintenance.

Fall and winter are popular times to start, since there’s less sun exposure while your skin heals.
