Moxi After Care Newport Beach and Orange County

Post Care

• Cleanse skin with a gentle cleanser twice daily
• Apply moisturizer when skin feels dry and wear broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily
• Apply a cold compress to decrease swelling
• Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy sweating, and heat exposure (saunas, hot tubs, hot yoga) for 24–48 hours
• Acetaminophen may be used if needed; avoid NSAIDs if bruising is a concern unless otherwise directed
• Extended sun precautions for several weeks help prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, especially in deeper skin tones
• Resume retinoids and other active skincare products only after the skin has completely healed or as directed by your provider
• If you have a history of cold sores (herpes simplex), let us know — we may prescribe an antiviral before or after treatment

Post Care Regimen

• Night of treatment: Apply exosomes
• AM and PM for the next 5–7 days:
  • AM: Cleanse with Gentle Cleanser, apply Re-Hydrate serum, Refresh moisturizer, and Defense broad-spectrum SPF 30+

What to Expect

• The treated area may be warm for 1–2 hours after treatment; warmth may continue for 12–24 hours
• Redness is normal and expected, and can persist for up to 7 days depending on the intensity of treatment
• MENDs (microscopic epidermal necrotic debris) will appear on the 2nd or 3rd day as tiny dark spots and a bronzed appearance — DO NOT scratch, exfoliate, or intentionally remove them
• Skin may feel rough or “sandpaper-like” before the MENDs naturally shed
• Mild itching during healing is common and does not usually indicate an allergic reaction
• Swelling can occur and is typically expected immediately after treatment
