MOXI Laser Skin Revitalization

A Gentle Approach to Radiant Skin
Looking to upgrade your skincare routine with minimal downtime? MOXI™ is the latest non-ablative laser technology designed to lighten, brighten and refresh your skin’s appearance. At McFarland Clinic Aesthetic & Wellness, we use MOXI to correct uneven pigmentation and improve overall tone and texture for patients in Ames and Central Iowa.
Why Choose MOXI?
MOXI is the ideal "lunchtime procedure" for active lifestyles. It comfortably delivers non-ablative laser energy to correct the initial signs of sun damage and aging—no matter the season or your skin type.
The MOXI Advantage
- Fast & Efficient: A quick procedure that fits easily into a busy schedule.
- All Skin Types: Unlike some lasers, MOXI is safe for all skin tones and can be performed year-round.
- Low-to-No Downtime: You can immediately return to your daily activities; makeup can be applied 24 hours after treatment.
- Simple Post-Care: Minimal recovery steps—just stay out of the sun and keep the skin hydrated.
How MOXI Works
MOXI delivers fractionated laser energy to create "micro-coagulation zones." Your body naturally repairs these zones by replacing damaged cells with fresh, new ones. This process triggers skin renewal, resulting in significant tonal and textural improvements to your face.
Before and After Results
Frequently Asked Questions
How comfortable is the treatment?
Most patients find the MOXI treatment well-tolerated. To ensure your comfort, and depending on the level of treatment required, the McFarland Clinic team may use cooling air or recommend a numbing cream.
How long does it take to see results?
Results will vary based on your goals. The renewal process typically follows this timeline:
- Day 1: Your skin may appear red, and you may notice small micro-dots called MENDS (Microscopic Epidermal Necrotic Debris).
- Days 3–5: As the micro-zones heal, the MENDS will naturally slough off.
- Day 6+: Fresh, renewed skin is revealed beneath.
What is the recommended post-care?
Post-care is simple since MOXI is a non-ablative fractionated treatment. We recommend wearing a moisturizing physical sunscreen and avoiding direct sun exposure. You may resume wearing makeup 24 hours post-treatment.
How many MOXI treatments will I need?
Your treatment plan depends on your specific goals and the level of existing skin damage. Most patients at our Ames clinic receive 3 to 4 corrective treatments, followed by regular maintenance sessions throughout the year to keep their skin glowing.
Can I combine MOXI with other treatments?
Yes, absolutely! MOXI is often paired with BBL® HEROic™ (a combination known as "MOXI + BBL") to target both deep pigmentation and surface texture simultaneously.
