Your skin is one of your most precious assets. And providing our patients with the best possible treatments and skincare is a job we take very seriously. At The Piazza Center, we use a wide array of skin rejuvenation treatments and expertise to help our patients achieve and maintain healthy, radiant skin. Traditionally, fall and winter were considered the prime time for laser skin treatments like Moxi. However, with advancements in technology and proper precautions, Moxi laser can be safely performed during the summer months, even with regular sun exposure. Here's why:
Moxi is Gentle Yet Effective for Summer
Unlike some more aggressive lasers, Moxi utilizes a fractional approach. This means it targets microscopic columns of skin, leaving the surrounding tissue intact. This gentler approach minimizes recovery time and makes it more suitable for summer treatment.

Moxi Has Minimal Downtime
Moxi is a gentle treatment that typically requires little to no downtime. It is often referred to as a “lunchtime” procedure since it can be performed quickly, and most individuals can resume their regular activities right after the treatment. This makes it convenient for those who want to rejuvenate their skin without significant interruption to their summer plans.
Moxi Addresses Summer Skin Concerns
Summer often brings unwanted skin concerns like sun damage, uneven pigmentation, and fine lines. Moxi laser is specifically designed to target these issues, promoting collagen production and improving skin texture, tone, and overall complexion. By addressing these concerns, Moxi can actually enhance the effectiveness of sun protection measures like sunscreen in the long run.
Important Precautions for Moxi in the Summer:
While Moxi is considered safe for summer, strict sun protection is crucial. This includes:
- Minimizing sun exposure for at least two weeks prior to treatment.
- Diligently applying broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher daily, even on cloudy days.
- Wearing protective clothing like hats and sunglasses when outdoors.
Consulting a Professional: Remember, every individual's skin is unique. Before scheduling your Moxi treatment, consult a qualified laser professional at The Piazza Center. They will assess your skin health, sun exposure habits, and discuss if Moxi is the right option for you during the summer months.
By following these guidelines and consulting with our experts, you can achieve a healthy, radiant complexion even while enjoying the summer sun. Schedule your consultation today!
