Laser Skin Resurfacing Benefits
Compare MOXI for texture and pores with BBL for selected pigment and redness concerns, with suitability and recovery assessed individually.
Top Benefits
-
Texture & pores — MOXI’s fractional laser stimulates collagen to smooth texture and refine enlarged pores.
-
Pigmentation & sun damage — BBL Hero breaks up brown spots and discoloration at the surface.
-
Collagen & anti-aging — visible improvement varies; small gene-expression research does not prove reversal of aging or a universal maintenance protocol.
Better Skin Quality
Why You'll Love It
MOXI and BBL on the Sciton platform, often paired in one visit for tone and texture.
Texture & Pores
MOXI’s fractional laser energy creates micro-treatment zones that trigger the body’s wound-healing response — stimulating new collagen to smooth rough texture and refine enlarged pores.
Pigmentation & Sun Damage
BBL Hero delivers light energy absorbed selectively by melanin, breaking up brown spots and hyperpigmentation. Treated pigment rises and naturally exfoliates over 7–14 days.
Collagen & Anti-Aging
A small BBL pilot found changes in some aging-associated gene-expression patterns. That does not establish clinical reversal of aging, a fixed duration of benefit or superiority to all other treatments.
Two Lasers, One Visit
Pairing MOXI with BBL covers texture and pigment in a single appointment.
Concerns We Address
Sciton laser and light treatments address a wide range of skin quality and tone concerns. Here’s what each technology targets — and when they work best together.
Sun Damage & Brown Spots
Accumulated UV exposure produces visible brown spots, lentigines, and generalized discoloration across the face, chest, and hands. BBL Hero selectively targets the melanin in these spots, causing the pigment to darken, rise to the surface, and flake off naturally over 7–14 days. For patients with diffuse sun damage affecting texture as well as tone, combining BBL with MOXI may address a separate texture concern if the skin assessment and recovery plan support the combination.
Rough Texture & Enlarged Pores
MOXI creates superficial fractional treatment zones that may improve selected tone and texture concerns. The degree of improvement and healing time vary; no procedure permanently eliminates pores.
Redness & Vascular Irregularities
BBL may reduce selected visible vessels and persistent redness. Rosacea can also need medical treatment and trigger management; light treatment is not a cure.
Fine Lines & Early Skin Laxity
MOXI may improve the appearance of selected superficial texture changes. Laxity needs a separate assessment before considering options such as Vivace RF Microneedling with its own benefits, risks and recovery.
Dull, Tired-Looking Skin
Tone and texture improvement varies by concern. A brighter appearance is possible, but neither MOXI nor BBL guarantees a particular “glass skin” result or a fixed timeline.
Preventive & Maintenance Treatments
The 2013 BBL gene-expression pilot studied five older women after three monthly treatments. It was not a 10-year annual-maintenance trial. Maintenance is based on your response and goals, with sun protection remaining essential.
Treatment Options
A combined option when both treatments fit your goals and skin assessment
The combined face package ($1,000) represents meaningful savings over booking MOXI and BBL separately ($750 + $500 = $1,250) — one numbing session, one recovery window, results that address texture and tone at once.
Who Performs This Treatment
Every Sciton laser treatment at ELLEMES is performed by a licensed medical aesthetician trained on the MOXI and BBL platforms.

Laser Skin Resurfacing Reviews
Selected Google reviews about MOXI, BBL and laser treatments at ELLEMES. Individual experiences vary.
“I trust Lauren with my life! I got a series of MOXI facials here and she has been so helpful through the process. When I went in for a consultation originally, I was nervous it would be a "salesy" vibe that I have gotten at other medical spas but it wasn't at all. She listened to my concerns, walked me through different options at different price points. Took her time to analyze my skincare routine and suggest possible tweaks without pushing products on me. Highly recommend Lauren and the team at ELLEMES!”
“Lauren is a wealth of knowledge and professional! She is an expert in skin, lasers and medical grade skin care. I just received my second MOXI laser and my skin has never looked better. It has helped my pigmentation and texture tremendously. Lauren is extremely thorough and made it a point to cover my entire face, neck and chest evenly. Her attention to detail is amazing! The spa is beautiful and all of the staff make a point to be kind and smile every time I am in!”
“Lauren is truly the best. I had a ton of hyperpigmentation from acne after going off birth control and she was so knowledgeable and understanding throughout the whole process. She definitely evaluated my skin as an individual and didn't just recommend a million different things to get money out of me. My main goals were scar removal and anti-aging and her individualized treatment with moxi+bbl got me exactly where I wanted to be. My skin has that glowy refreshed look and I have no lasting hyperpigmentation or fine lines.”
“I scheduled an appointment with Christian for a Moxi Laser treatment. Each experience with her is always outstanding!!! She is very knowledgeable and caring about my facial issue. Christian ensured I knew how well my treatment is working with such enthusiasm!!! And I am extremely encouraged with my progress!!!”
“I've had such a great experience at Ellemes Med Spa! Lip filler with Thao and two sessions of BBL and Moxi with Lauren and every visit has been amazing. I always felt comfortable and never pressured. They take the time to explain exactly what they're doing, how the treatment works, and why it's beneficial.”
“ELLEMES is fantastic! I've had various services — chemical peel, microneedling, moxi, and a facial. All were incredible. The staff is so very nice and accommodating. Jaycee usually does my skincare treatments and she is so knowledgeable, gentle, and patient. I just recently had the pleasure of meeting and having services with Thao and she was incredible as well. She knew exactly what I wanted done and did it well and made sure I was comfortable throughout. I could not recommend this place enough!”
“I would recommend services with Christian to anyone! I have seen her for almost 2 years, she does fantastic work and is so great to chat with. She gives thoughtful recommendations (but without being pushy). I have no doubt the services I've done with her (microneedling and BBL/Moxi) has improved the quality of my skin. The spa itself feels cozy and parking is convenient (and can be validated!). I also love the option to schedule on Saturdays.”
“I had Moxi for the first time. Lauren made me very comfortable during the procedure. I've been going to her for years and love everything she's helped achieve!”
“Their team and work are exceptional, they make you feel comfortable, and best of all, you are satisfied with the results. I had my second Moxi laser session, and I am 100% satisfied with the results. I also did yesterday RF microneedling and am awaiting the results for that. The work is excellent, highly recommended.”
“I came in for an initial consult and treatment. Jaycee was super insightful and listened to my concerns. We decided on a treatment (moxi) and she got right to work. The entire environment is really tranquil and I'm excited to go back!”
“Jaycee is the best! The hydra facials leave my skin glowing and I love how the moxi treatment makes my skin look brand new! A must try on both.”
“Lauren is incredibly knowledgeable and professional. Looking to refresh my skin for my daughter's wedding this fall. We started with a hydrofacial and consultation about my goals. Determined that 3 sessions of combo BBL and Moxi would best achieve what I wanted. One week after my first session and everyone already notices my skin looking fresher and smoother. Very happy with the ELLEMES experience.”
