What are BBL & Moxi by Sciton?
Sciton is an industry leader in laser and light technology and we are thrilled to offer their BBL and Moxi treatments!
BBL (Broad Band Light) is a revolutionary technology that targets specific skin cells to address areas of concern and reveal younger-looking skin. With a wide range of settings and filters, BBL can be used to treat a variety of different conditions including hyperpigmentation, fine lines, rosacea, acne, elasticity, and uneven skin tone, while simultaneously using heat to generate new collagen.
Moxi is a non-ablative fractional laser that offers a gentle approach to radiant skin for any skin type, year-round. The treatment corrects the initial signs of sun damage and aging, evens out tone, smooths textural irregularities, tames melasma, and leaves skin looking brighter and more polished. And all this with minimal downtime!
Individually, BBL and Moxi effectively tackle certain concerns. Combined, they’re a powerful duo working synergistically at different levels of the skin to deliver results that wow.
Why we love BBL and Moxi
The main reason we love BBL and Moxi comes down to one word – Results. Patients treated with BBL and Moxi have seen transformational improvement and some say they truly love their skin for the first time.
A well-known Stanford University research study shows that “BBL treatment can restore gene expression pattern of photoaged and intrinsically aged human skin to resemble young skin”, meaning BBL can reverse skin damage and the signs of aging at a molecular level.
Meanwhile, as a prejuvenation treatment, Moxi stops the signs of aging in their tracks. It offers visible results for younger patients looking for a light touch up or for those wanting to take their BBL treatment to the next level without significant downtime. And it’s appropriate for all skin types.
Combination BBL + Moxi treatments are the ultimate in skin tone and texture correction.
Why Radiance Rx
We invested in BBL and Moxi by Sciton because we want our patients to step out into the world with confidence, knowing their skin is glowing. Other laser and light therapies can provide some improvement to skin texture and tone, but we believe our patients deserve the best, and that’s what this technology delivers.
What to Expect
The first step for all BBL and/or Moxi patients is a consultation with one of our clinicians which helps determine the best treatment plan based on factors such as your skin, lifestyle and goals. During the consultation, you’ll discuss which procedure is most appropriate (BBL, Moxi or a combination treatment), expected results from a single treatment vs a series, pre and post procedure instructions, etc.
On the day of your treatment, arrive with a clean, make-up free face. For BBL, you’ll go straight into your treatment. If you are getting Moxi on its own or as an add-on to BLL, numbing cream will be applied prior to the Moxi procedure. Radiance Rx is a premier BBL and Moxi treatment facility near Raleigh Durham. We have BBL and Moxi experience and will make sure your appointment is fast, efficient, and having you looking the way you want. We're located at 2046 Creekside Landing Dr, Apex, NC 27502. Contact Radiance Rx today to schedule your Broad Band Light and Moxi treatment.
During the treatment, you will likely feel a warm or rubber band snap sensation as energy is delivered. Your eyes will be protected with safety shields or glasses, but with the BBL you’ll still see bright flashes. Patients typically tolerate the treatment well and we have Pro-Nox available for added comfort as needed.
After treatment, you may feel a warm sensation similar to a light sunburn in the treated area. You may also experience some swelling, dryness and itching. And you should expect to see small dark spots appear as treated tissue works its way out of your body and new fresh skin is regenerated! These are all normal responses, and the key is to be gentle with your skin during this time. That includes washing gently, using sunscreen methodically, moisturizing liberally, avoiding sun exposure, and making sure not to scrub, rub or pick at your healing skin.
You’ll see results as your skin heals, typically within 7-10 days for the face and within 2-3 weeks for the chest and/or body. Optimal results require a series of corrective treatments followed by maintenance sessions.
