Typically, patients don’t think treatments with the MOXI laser hurt. The sensation is a “prickly heat” that should dissipate quickly, and topical numbing cream is used prior to treatment which keeps most patients extremely comfortable.

Give yourself some “prejuvenating” care
Are you interested in laser facials, but not sure where to start? Or maybe you think your skin isn’t “bad” enough for a laser treatment (which, no, no one’s skin is “bad”). Believe it or not, we’ve got a laser facial that is perfect for getting into the laser game. At Blush Aesthetics, we’re excited to offer treatment with the MOXI laser in Toledo for patients across the area! This non-ablative laser treats melasma, tone and texture, fine lines, and other early signs of aging.
What happens after a MOXI laser treatment
One of the great things about MOXI is that, because of its gentle and non-ablative function, there’s no real downtime required! Immediately after treatment, expect your skin to be red—similar to a mild sunburn. This should dissipate over the day. Your skin’s texture will be rough for the next 3 days or so as your old skin sloughs off to reveal the healthy, glowing skin beneath.
The Future of Skincare Is Here
When we say MOXI is a laser for everyone, we mean it—our skin specialists use this innovative technology to prevent and reverse all kinds of skin damage. So, how does it work? This non-ablative fractional laser is gentle yet powerful, working to stimulate collagen production to leave skin stronger and healthier, all while addressing signs of past damage.
It does it all by harnessing your body’s innate healing powers to rebuild your complexion from the inside out, minimizing downtime and maximizing results. Think of it as a refreshing yoga flow that strengthens and revitalizes your skin without the stress, not an intense boot camp session that leaves you so sore you avoid the gym for the week.
How it Works
01. Consultation
Meeting for a consultation before a MOXI treatment is not required, but it can be super helpful for getting to know you and your goals! We start with a health history, skin analysis, and discussion of your current skincare regimen.
02. Determine Treatment
From all of this information, we will work with you to build a comprehensive plan to get you from where you are to where you want to be. If you are a candidate for MOXI, we can start treatment whenever you're ready!
03. Treatment
While you lay back and relax, your provider applies the MOXI laser device to your treatment area. It delivers pulses of tunable, non-ablative laser energy into the layers of your skin to trigger natural healing. Essentially, old skin can slough away to be replaced by healthier, newer skin.
04. After Care
As with any light or laser therapy, after MOXI you'll want to avoid the sun as much as possible. In most cases, you can apply makeup immediately after treatment, but your provider will ensure you know what to expect for photofacial after-care.
Your Best Skin At Every Age
The secret to unveiling your lifelong glow is out! From preventing or reversing aging to perfecting your complexion’s tone and texture, MOXI does it all.
MOXI for Preventative Skincare (20s & 30s)
You don’t have to wait until skin problems come up to take action—in fact, you shouldn’t. We don’t just recommend the MOXI laser in Toledo for patients struggling with wrinkles, sun spots, and other changes that come with age, but also for patients in their 20s and 30s to act as a “prejuvenation” tool.
MOXI is the perfect way to dip your toes into the laser world; it’s effective without requiring days of hiding at home to recover. By boosting collagen production early, MOXI gives your skin the resources to maintain its strong internal framework, preventing wrinkles, sagging, and other signs of aging. Plus, those collagen proteins—which act as building blocks for your skin—keep your complexion looking bright and feeling smooth, evening out pigmentation and textural irregularities. The best part: it does it all from the inside out, so you don’t have to worry about unnatural-looking results.
MOXI for Reversing Early Aging (30s & 40s)
Wrinkles and sun spots are an inevitable sign of living, but that doesn’t mean that you have to accept changes that you don’t like. Adult skin cuts back collagen production every year, slowly wearing away at our skin’s structure and changing how it looks and feels. Unlike topical treatments, MOXI works internally to rebuild that structure—offering noticeable yet natural results.
The MOXI laser is a powerful yet gentle solution for resetting your complexion, clearing up pigmentation and sun spots and smoothing fine lines from within. The result: radiant, clear, youthful skin that still looks like your skin. From surface-level spots to deeper-set lines, MOXI helps your skin shed it all and replace old skin with new, stronger skin.
MOXI for Hyperpigmentation (All Ages)
Hyperpigmentation can happen at any stage of life, but melasma is especially common during pregnancy. Not all lasers are safe for treating all kinds of hyperpigmentation. In fact, some lasers can worsen melasma by triggering pigment production.
The MOXI laser is uniquely effective for fading discoloration without overstimulating pigment cells, offering safe results that last. From gray-colored melasma patches to sun spots that won’t fade from topical products, MOXI evens everything out by kick-starting your body’s natural healing process. While stimulating collagen production, this laser speeds up your skin’s cellular turnover rate—how quickly it sheds and replaces damaged cells—gently removing cells with too much melanin and replacing them.
MOXI for Longevity (40s and Above)
You don’t have to commit to significant downtime to get significant results. With our MOXI laser in Toledo, you can turn back the clock without the commitment—and risks—of invasive procedures. This state-of-the-art laser helps keep your skin firm, radiant, and resilient, strengthening it from the inside out to fortify your defenses against future threats, too.
Many patients in their 40s and beyond opt for MOXI treatments as part of their long-term skin maintenance plan. Spacing out your treatments throughout the years supports steady collagen production, combating and preventing signs of aging and general skin damage, from hyperpigmentation to enlarged pores. By working at the surface of your skin and in the deeper layers, MOXI targets a range of common concerns from every angle.

Frequently Asked Questions About MOXI
Because it’s so gentle, there is no downtime after MOXI, and minimal recovery time. Immediately after treatment your skin will likely be red, and you should avoid using any of your usual products for the rest of the day. Expect your skin’s texture to be rough for about 5 days as old skin sloughs off. SPF is always your friend, but after a laser treatment, it’s a must!
Most MOXI laser treatments are completed in 30 minutes or less, making it a great “lunchtime” procedure.
Each patient will have a customized treatment plan, but nearly everyone can benefit from multiple treatments with MOXI to achieve their ultimate skin goals.
While we recommend the MOXI laser in Toledo for some patients struggling with acne scars, it may not be the best solution in all cases. MOXI works by replacing old, damaged cells with new, healthy ones, naturally evening out your skin’s tone. So, we may suggest MOXI for patients with darker skin types on the Fitzpatrick scale to address pigmented scars.
However, MOXI is not ideal for smoothing indented scars. There are many different kinds of acne scars, and each kind requires a different treatment. There is no one-size-fits-all solution—in fact, we often recommend combining multiple treatments (including MOXI) to achieve the best results!
MOXI is a non-ablative laser, which means it does not vaporize the uppermost layers of your skin like ablative lasers do—and that’s why it requires less downtime. MOXI works by delivering fractional laser energy beneath the surface of your skin and into the dermis, where it produces collagen, without damaging the surface. Here, it ramps up collagen production to rebuild your skin from within, while ablative lasers do so from the outside.
That’s why you’ll continue to notice improvements in the weeks after your MOXI treatment! Your skin will continue to produce more collagen now that we’ve sent it into “healing mode,” and as it puts those proteins to use, your results will continue to build.
While both the MOXI laser and the HALO laser are popular options for skin rejuvenation (for good reason), they work differently to target different skin concerns. HALO combines ablative and non-ablative wavelengths, while MOXI only uses non-ablative wavelengths. This means that the HALO laser requires more downtime, but may be more suitable for patients struggling with more advanced skin texture and tone concerns.
Neither laser is universally better than the other.
We may recommend the MOXI laser in Toledo for one patient and HALO for another because everyone’s skin is different. That’s why at Blush Aesthetics, your journey always starts with a consultation with our skin experts!
Yes. MOXI is a gentle, non-ablative laser, which means it targets the skin without removing the uppermost layer. For curious patients exploring the benefits of lasers, MOXI offers an approachable option to improve skin tone and quality with minimal downtime.
At Blush Aesthetics, we recommend our MOXI laser in Toledo to patients of all ages. MOXI can support prejuvenation for patients in their 20s and 30s, maintaining skin quality before visible signs of aging appear. For patients with more mature skin, we include MOXI in a thoughtful laser plan.
Our providers customize your treatment to refresh skin tone and radiance without overwhelming your skin.
Before your appointment for our MOXI laser in Toledo, your provider gives you pre-care instructions to keep your skin calm and ready.
Healthy skin responds best to MOXI, because the laser activates your body’s natural healing process. Irritated or damaged skin is already focused on repair, making treatment less effective.
We recommend patients follow these general guidelines:
- Avoid tanning and excessive sun exposure for 1 to 2 weeks before treatment. This includes tanning beds, self-tanner, sunburns, and long periods of unprotected UV exposure. If your skin gets burned or irritated before your visit, contact our team so we can adjust your plan.
- Pause strong, active skincare products, such as retinoids or exfoliating acids, for 3 to 5 days before treatment. These products can make your skin more sensitive or reactive.
- Arrive with clean skin on the day of your appointment. Skip makeup, moisturizers, and active products on the treatment area unless your provider tells you otherwise.
Tell your provider about anything that could affect your skin’s response, including recent treatments and skin sensitivities. When we understand the factors that affect your skin, our specialists make more informed decisions about your treatment and can keep your experience as comfortable as possible.
Your skin feels especially sensitive after laser treatments and needs extra support. While MOXI does not have the same intensity as deeper resurfacing options, protecting your skin afterward helps build your best results.
To help maintain your glow between appointments, we recommend that patients:
- Apply SPF 30+ sunscreen every morning and reapply every 2 hours when spending time outdoors. Wear a hat for extra protection on sunny days.
- Avoid tanning beds, sunburns, and unprotected sun exposure.
- Use medical-grade skincare that supports your skin barrier.
- Schedule maintenance treatments at the cadence your provider recommends.
These habits support the results you are actively creating with MOXI.
Sun exposure and inconsistent skincare contribute to the same discoloration, dullness, and visible aging we just worked to improve with the MOXI laser.
In Toledo during a Blush consultation, your provider helps you plan what comes next. As your skin responds and your goals evolve, we may discuss adjusting your treatment cadence, increasing laser intensity over time, or pairing MOXI with other options to keep your results moving forward.
