Moxi Laser in Brentwood

Our Moxi laser in Brentwood is an ideal treatment for those looking to correct red or brown pigment, sun damage, uneven skin texture, or melasma. It is safe for all skin types and tones, and our aesthetician or physician can perform the treatment on any patient over the age of 18.

Some patients opt for Moxi laser sessions as an adjunct to other, more invasive skin rejuvenation techniques. Others exclusively rely on Moxi to effectively address their mild to moderate skin concerns.

Whether you envision Moxi as one component of your overall treatment plan or as its sole focus, you will receive highly personalized treatment recommendations from our team of experts, backed by years of experience in the field of medical aesthetics.

We are here to help you achieve your goals, respecting your timeline, lifestyle, and budget, all while maintaining a safe environment.

For example, a few reasons you may not be a candidate for Moxi include:

• Autoimmune disorders
• Pregnancy or breastfeeding
• Active infections
• Skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis
• The use of certain medications in the last 6-12 months (including, but not limited to, Accutane or blood thinners)

The DeLozier Plastic Surgery team is well versed in all aspects of the Moxi laser’s capabilities and have a history of success in achieving patients’ overall skincare goals.

Here are just a few of the factors we consider when customizing each Moxi treatment we perform:

1. The number of sessions. Based on the severity of your concerns, the total number of sessions—and the frequency of those sessions—can vary.
2. Combined treatments. We often perform Moxi treatments in conjunction with broadband light therapy, but we may make other recommendations after assessing your skin and discussing your aesthetic goals.
3. The amount of laser energy delivered. Depending on whether you are undergoing a Moxi laser treatment to prevent future issues; maintain your skin’s current luminosity; or completely transform your complexion; we can adjust the density settings of the handpiece. We will also determine how many “passes” (number of times we need to apply the laser energy to a single area) you need to reach your goals.

During an appointment with the Moxi laser in Brentwood, we will first escort you to a private, comfortable treatment room and apply a topical numbing solution. Once you are ready, we will configure the Moxi device based on the customizations above, masterfully applying the laser energy through a small handpiece to target the discolorations you wish to correct. In total, a Moxi appointment takes about 60 minutes.

While Moxi is much more gentle than other laser treatments, you should still factor in 2 to 3 days of downtime after each session to allow for initial redness, swelling, and/or rougher skin texture to subside. It may take up to 7 days for these side effects to fully diminish.

During this time, it’s important to avoid exposing your skin to the sun. Wear an SPF of 30 or more anytime you leave home, re-applying every 2 hours or as needed. Also, be sure to maintain a consistent at-home skincare routine using gentle, fragrance-free products.

You should notice initial results about 4 weeks after your first treatment, with pigment or discoloration continuing to fade after each additional session.
