MOXI+ at Plastic Surgery Associates of South Dakota: Next-Level Skin Rejuvenation with Minimal Downtime

If you love the brightening and refreshing results of Moxi Laser Treatment, you may be excited to learn about MOXI+, a customized treatment designed to take your results even further.

At Plastic Surgery Associates of South Dakota, MOXI+ combines the benefits of MOXI with an additional deeper wavelength using advanced technology from Sciton. The result is a powerful treatment that addresses both surface skin concerns and deeper collagen remodeling in a single session.

What Is MOXI+?

MOXI+ is an enhanced version of a traditional MOXI treatment. While MOXI focuses on refreshing the upper layers of the skin, MOXI+ incorporates an additional wavelength (often the 1470 nm erbium wavelength) to reach deeper layers of the skin.

This combination allows providers to treat multiple concerns at once, including:

• Sun damage and pigmentation

• Uneven tone and dullness

• Rough skin texture

• Early signs of aging

• Mild scarring

• Fine lines and wrinkles

By targeting both superficial and deeper layers of the skin, MOXI+ can produce more noticeable rejuvenation compared to MOXI alone.

How MOXI+ Improves Your Skin

MOXI uses a non-ablative fractional laser to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates the body’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of new collagen and healthy skin cells.

When combined with the deeper wavelength used in MOXI+, the treatment can:

• Improve skin tone and brightness

• Stimulate deeper collagen production

• Refine skin texture

• Reduce visible sun damage

• Support long-term skin health

The result is smoother, clearer, and more youthful-looking skin over time.

MOXI vs. MOXI+: What’s the Difference?

Patients often ask how MOXI+ compares to the standard MOXI treatment.

MOXI is ideal for:

• Preventative skincare (“prejuvenation”)

• Early sun damage

• Gentle maintenance treatments

• Patients wanting minimal downtime

MOXI+ is best for:

• Patients seeking more noticeable correction

• Deeper collagen stimulation

• More advanced sun damage or texture concerns

• Achieving stronger results in fewer treatments

In simple terms, MOXI refreshes the surface of the skin, while MOXI+ refreshes the surface and stimulates deeper collagen for more comprehensive rejuvenation.

What Is Downtime Like?

One of the biggest advantages of MOXI+ is that it still offers relatively minimal downtime compared to more aggressive resurfacing lasers.

After treatment, patients may experience:

• Redness similar to a mild sunburn

• Mild swelling

• A “sandpaper” texture as the skin heals

These effects typically resolve within a few days, with visible improvement continuing as collagen rebuilds in the weeks following treatment.

Who Is a Good Candidate for MOXI+?

MOXI+ is a great option for patients who want noticeable skin improvement without the downtime associated with aggressive resurfacing procedures.

You may be a good candidate if you:

• Have sun damage or uneven pigmentation

• Want smoother skin texture

• Are noticing early signs of aging

• Want stronger results than MOXI alone

• Prefer treatments with minimal downtime

Because the treatment is customizable, providers can adjust settings to fit different skin types and goals.
