Radiant, more youthful-looking skin doesn’t happen by accident. It takes care, expert strategy, and advanced modern technologies.
Fortunately, at Dermatology Aesthetics of Northern Kentucky, we offer 2 of the most advanced treatments in aesthetics available: the Moxi® laser and BBL® HEROic™️.
Individually, these technologies provide impressive skin rejuvenation. Together, they give your complexion a complete system upgrade.
Keep reading to learn more about why we recommend Moxi and BBL treatment in Florence, KY, what you can expect during treatment, and why we consider it our ultimate skin rejuvenation duo.
Why We Combine Moxi and BBL Heroic
Skin aging occurs in more than one place at a time—changes occur on the surface of the skin and deeper in the dermis.
And while the Moxi laser and BBL Heroic both address signs of skin aging, they do so in different ways. That’s why pairing these treatments together creates better results than either can achieve on its own.
Let’s take a look at exactly how each treatment addresses skin concerns.
BBL Heroic: Color Correction and Reduced Surface-Level Pigment
BBL uses powerful, light-based therapy to target melanin and broken veins in the skin. BBL actually stands for broadband light, meaning it uses a wide spectrum of light wavelengths to address different skin conditions.
As the light enters the pigment in the melanin or targeted veins, it breaks them apart, leading to clearer skin.
We specifically use BBL Heroic to address:
- Sun spots
- Age spots
- Freckles
- Redness or rosacea
- Broken capillaries or spider veins
The BBL technology clears away the discoloration and restores a more even complexion.
Moxi Laser: Texture Renewal and Skin Quality Improvements
The Moxi laser, on the other hand, is a non-ablative fractional laser. This means it creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin (as opposed to ablative lasers, which remove whole layers of the skin).
These “coagulation zones,” or tiny injuries, in the skin trigger the body’s natural healing process to improve:
- Enlarged pores
- Rough texture
- Dullness
- Fine lines
The Moxi laser also stimulates the production of collagen, a protein that helps rebuild the quality of the skin underneath the surface.
Putting Moxi and BBL Together
When we pair the Moxi laser with BBL Heroic, we can tackle early signs of aging from 2 fronts.
While BBL Heroic clears pigment, reduces redness, and helps your skin glow, the Moxi laser smooths texture, refines pores, and improves deeper skin health.
How Treatment With Moxi and BBL Heroic Works
Although combining aesthetic treatments may seem intimidating, one of the reasons we love pairing Moxi with BBL Treatment in Florence, KY, is the combo’s simplicity. Appointments for both Moxi and BBL are straightforward, comfortable, and surprisingly quick.
Here’s what to expect from each treatment.
Step 1: Consultation
We begin every patients’ journey with an in-depth skin consultation and evaluation. During this private, one-on-one conversation, we get to know more about you and your cosmetic goals.
We also evaluate your:
- Skin type
- Skin concerns
- Skin sensitivity
- Sun exposure history
- Treatment goals
Then, we develop a treatment plan that works for you. The Moxi laser and BBL Heroic devices both allow for highly customizable treatment sessions. We can adjust the settings to suit your unique needs—making treatment safer and more effective.
Step 2: BBL Heroic
Next, we schedule your skin rejuvenation appointments. We typically begin with BBL Heroic to target visible hyperpigmentation and redness on the skin’s surface.
During treatment, you may feel a mild warmth, but most patients do not experience much discomfort, if any. Depending on the treatment area and skin concerns, the length of the appointment can vary.
Step 3: Moxi
Once we address the surface pigment with BBL, we can move to the Moxi laser.
During treatment with Moxi, you may feel a warm, prickly sensation as your provider moves the device in a methodical pattern over your skin. However, we apply a topical numbing cream before the procedure to minimize discomfort.
Appointments usually take about 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Step 4: Rejuvenation Begins
Over the next few days after treatment with Moxi, you may notice tiny, dark “peppery” dots on your skin known as MENDS (microscopic epidermal necrotic debris). These little pieces of damaged pigment and old skin that the treatment targeted gently fall away on their own as a normal part of the healing process.
Step 5: Results
After just 1 Moxi and BBL treatment in Florence, KY, you may notice:
- Clearer, more even skin tone
- Reduced redness and discoloration
- Smoother, softer skin
- A “fresh-faced” glow
We also recommend 3 yearly treatments of Moxi and BBL Heroic to maintain results. Some patients may need multiple combination treatments depending on their skin condition and treatment goals.
Even More Reasons We Recommend Moxi and BBL
Combined Moxi and BBL treatment in Florence, KY, offers surface-level and deep skin rejuvenation.
But this ultimate duo also:
- Helps patients in their 20s to 40s prevent signs of aging, also called “prejuvenation.”
- Has minimal downtime, especially compared to skin resurfacing treatments.
- Treats skin concerns on the face, neck, hands, chest, legs, arms, and more.
- Works well during any season for year-round skin enhancement.
