What is MOXI™?
The MOXI™ Laser by Sciton is a gentle yet powerful skin rejuvenation treatment designed to refresh and revitalise the skin with minimal downtime. It is a non-ablative fractional laser, meaning it delivers controlled energy to the skin’s surface without damaging the outer layer. This stimulates collagen production and promotes healthy new skin cells for a smoother, brighter, and more even complexion.
MOXI™ is suitable for all skin types and tones and can be used year-round. It is ideal for improving uneven skin tone, sun damage, fine lines, pigmentation, and overall skin texture.
How Does It Work?
MOXI™ delivers gentle laser energy in microscopic columns into the skin’s surface, creating controlled zones of thermal stimulation. This triggers the skin’s natural repair process, encouraging new collagen and elastin production while replacing damaged cells with fresh, healthy tissue.
Because MOXI™ is a non-ablative laser, it leaves the surrounding skin intact — resulting in faster healing and minimal downtime. The treatment is easily customisable, allowing your clinician to adjust the intensity for a light “prejuvenation” refresh or a more corrective resurfacing session.
What Does the Treatment Involve?
Your MOXI™ treatment will begin with cleansing the skin and, if required, applying a topical numbing cream to ensure comfort. During the procedure, the handheld MOXI™ device glides smoothly across the skin, delivering controlled laser energy in short pulses.
You may feel a warm, prickling sensation as the laser passes over each area. A typical treatment takes around 15–45 minutes, depending on the treatment area. MOXI™ is suitable for the face, neck, décolletage, arms, and other areas of the body.
What Can I Expect After My Treatment?
Following treatment, the skin may appear pink or feel slightly warm for a few hours. Over the next few days, a fine “sandpaper-like” texture (often called MENDs, or microscopic epidermal necrotic debris) may appear as the skin naturally exfoliates. This is a normal part of the rejuvenation process and reveals fresh, renewed skin underneath.
Most patients resume normal activities immediately, with makeup typically applied the next day. It’s important to avoid direct sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum SPF daily to protect your results.
You’ll notice an improvement in skin tone and texture within days, with further enhancement as collagen continues to rebuild over time. For best results, a series of treatments may be recommended, followed by periodic maintenance sessions to keep your skin glowing and healthy.
