Overview

What Is MOXI Laser?

The Piazza Center offers MOXI™ laser treatments in Austin, TX to refresh skin tone, fade sun spots, and smooth texture — a gentle, nonablative fractional laser that penetrates only the top layers of skin, making it ideal for “prejuvenation” and safe for all skin types. MOXI improves the appearance of mild sun damage and discoloration on the face, neck, chest, and body with far less downtime than more aggressive laser skin resurfacing treatments, and can be used year-round. Working with tiny columns of heat, MOXI prompts the skin to generate new collagen, smoothing texture and improving tone as it heals — making it a favorite “maintenance” treatment between more intensive procedures like HALO and Forever Young BBL™.

At a Glance

Everything You Need to Know

01

What MOXI Treats

  • Mild sun damage
  • Uneven pigmentation, freckles, and melasma
  • Rough skin texture and tone

Since it works on the upper layers of skin, MOXI is especially well-suited to pigment problems and melasma.

02

The Treatment

Your laser technician adjusts the MOXI device to your skin concerns, then rolls it across the treatment area. Most patients feel a “prickly” heating sensation and don’t require topical numbing — cool air or numbing cream is available for sensitive skin.

Treatment Length

About 30 minutes

Skin Type

Safe for all skin types

03

Immediately After

  • Skin feels warm and appears slightly pink, like a mild sunburn, for a few hours
  • Some roughness or a sandy texture on treated areas for a few days
  • Makeup can be applied 24 hours after treatment
04

Downtime & Plan

  • About 2 days of downtime, with little disruption to your routine
  • We typically recommend 3–4 sessions, spaced one month apart
  • Touch-up treatments every six months help maintain results

Why Choose MOXI

Gentle enough to repeat,
strong enough to show.

MOXI is designed to treat minor skin concerns with minimal downtime — a quick, comfortable way to stay ahead of sun damage and uneven tone rather than waiting to correct it later.

  1. 01

    Quick, Pain-Free

    Most treatments are complete in about 30 minutes, with minimal to no discomfort.

  2. 02

    Little to No Downtime

    Skin heals quickly, and makeup can be worn again just 24 hours after treatment.

  3. 03

    All Skin Types

    MOXI is safe for every skin type and tone, and can be used year-round.

  4. 04

    True Prejuvenation

    Maintains a youthful appearance by staying ahead of early sun damage and aging.

  5. 05

    Smoother, Brighter Skin

    New collagen production smooths texture and tone as skin heals.

  6. 06

    Visible Healing

    Results are visible quickly, with continued improvement after each session.

Layer & Combine

The Sciton
STAX approach.

MOXI is also used between HALO and Forever Young BBL™ treatments to maintain results — layering gentle, low-downtime sessions with more intensive resurfacing to keep skin looking its best over time.

Investment

Cost & financing.

MOXI is priced by treatment area and the number of sessions in your plan. Because most patients benefit from a series of 3–4 treatments, Dr. Piazza’s team provides a full cost breakdown after your consultation, and flexible financing is available through Cherry, CareCredit®, and PatientFi.

Results

Your MOXI Results

As treated skin heals, sun damage and uneven pigmentation fade and texture smooths out, revealing brighter, more even-toned skin. Because MOXI works gradually and gently, most patients see continued improvement across their recommended series of 3–4 sessions, with touch-ups every six months helping results last.
