Sun spots, also known as solar lentigines, develop from years of sun exposure, leading to dark pigmentation patches on the skin. These flat, brown spots typically create an uneven complexion. These spots can appear more prominently as you age, especially on areas like the face, which are frequently exposed to sunlight. At Viva Med Spa & Wellness in Cranston, RI, we specialize in reducing sun spots using the Moxi® laser. This non-invasive treatment promotes healthy skin renewal, helping you have a smoother, more radiant complexion with minimal downtime.

At Viva Med Spa & Wellness, we use the Moxi® laser to address the sun spots and improve skin tone. This treatment is a non-ablative fractional laser that stimulates cell turnover and reduces melanin buildup. This treatment is ideal for patients seeking effective, noticeable results with minimal downtime.
We recommend a series of 3-4 Moxi® laser treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart to help achieve the most ideal results for you. Many patients notice improvements within 1-2 weeks after the first session, with continued enhancement over the course of multiple treatments. Ongoing maintenance treatments every 6-12 months and daily sun protection are essential to maintain clear, even-toned skin.
The Moxi® laser helps in fading sun spots gradually, with initial improvements visible as early as 1-2 weeks. As the skin renews itself, the pigmentation fades, leaving a more even complexion. Patients experience a significant reduction in discoloration and improved skin clarity with multiple sessions.
The Moxi® laser delivers controlled energy to the skin, promoting cell renewal and reducing melanin buildup, which helps fade pigmentation and improve overall skin tone.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. A numbing cream can be applied before the session to ensure your comfort.
Each session may last 30-60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Initial results can be seen within 1-2 weeks, with full improvement after completing the recommended series of treatments.
While the laser reduces existing pigmentation, consistent sun protection and periodic maintenance sessions are crucial to prevent future sun spots.
Mild redness or peeling may occur but usually resolves within a few days. Our team will provide you with aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
