Frequently Asked Questions
How does the MOXI laser work?
MOXI uses a 1927nm wavelength that specifically targets water molecules in the skin, creating micro-coagulation zones. These zones promote the regeneration of new skin cells by replacing old, damaged ones. The result is an overall improvement in skin tone, texture, and pigmentation with low downtime.

How comfortable is the treatment?
Most patients tolerate the treatment well, but cooling air and topical numbing cream can be applied for added comfort. The procedure is quick and designed to minimize discomfort.
How soon will I see results?
Immediately after treatment, your skin may appear red, and you may notice tiny micro dots where the laser was applied. These will darken and slough off over 3-5 days, revealing smoother, more even-toned skin.
What is the post-care regimen?
Post-care is straightforward. Apply a physical sunscreen and avoid direct sunlight for optimal healing. You can return to your skincare routine, including makeup, 24 hours after treatment.
How many treatments will I need?
Typically, about 3 treatments are recommended to achieve optimal results. Most patients continue with maintenance treatments to preserve the effects and ensure ongoing skin health. It really depends on your skin – the outcome you’re looking for and your starting point so it is best to book for a complimentary consultation to find out more.
