MOXI is a non-ablative fractional laser that delivers low-density 1927 nm wavelength energy to create coagulation zones in the upper dermis, stimulating collagen remodeling and improving skin tone and texture with minimal downtime. BBL Heroic (BroadBand Light) is an advanced intense pulsed light device that targets pigmentation, vascular lesions, and photoaged skin using precisely filtered light wavelengths to generate heat in chromophore-rich tissue.
The MOXI + BBL Heroic combination sequences these two laser modalities in a single treatment session. MOXI addresses textural irregularities and early signs of aging at the dermal level, while BBL Heroic corrects surface discoloration, sun damage, and vascular concerns. Together, the two technologies deliver full-spectrum skin renewal — from the outside in.
Younger You Aesthetics providers apply the combo protocol using Sciton's MOXI and BBL Heroic platforms — the same clinical-grade devices used in leading dermatology practices across Northern California. BBL Heroic's Intelligent Control system dynamically calibrates each pulse for safer, more effective treatment than the prior-generation BBL Hero platform.
Patients with combined textural irregularities and pigmentation concerns see the most dramatic results from the MOXI + BBL Heroic combo. Even if you've been disappointed by single-modality treatments before, the layered action of MOXI and BBL Heroic can address what individual lasers leave behind.
The MOXI + BBL Heroic combo collapses two distinct treatment modalities into a single appointment. MOXI resurfaces while BBL Heroic corrects — so you leave with work done on both the structural and pigmentary levels of your skin. Younger You Aesthetics patients appreciate the efficiency of achieving six months of single-modality progress in one session.
MOXI's fractional laser energy initiates a dermal remodeling cascade that progressively tightens pores, smooths uneven texture, and reduces fine lines over 4–8 weeks post-treatment. The textural improvement pairs naturally with BBL Heroic's pigment correction to produce the clear, smooth, radiant skin that patients describe as "looking like myself but younger."
BBL Heroic targets melanin and oxyhemoglobin — the chromophores responsible for sunspots, redness, and diffuse brown discoloration. Patients with Sacramento valley sun exposure commonly report visible reduction in solar lentigines after a single BBL Heroic session. Combined with MOXI resurfacing, the result is a visibly more even, luminous complexion.
Unlike ablative CO2 laser resurfacing, which requires 5–10 days of social downtime, the MOXI + BBL Heroic combo typically produces 2–5 days of mild redness and a "coffee ground" shedding phase as treated skin naturally exfoliates. This modest recovery window makes the treatment practical even for busy Sacramento professionals. Restore your glow without a week-long interruption.
The MOXI + BBL Heroic combo is one of our most-requested treatments for brides chasing that luminous, glass-skin glow. Because results build and shedding needs time to settle, the secret is starting early.
Begin your series around 6 months out, continue at 3 months, then book a final combo session 1 month before so the glow peaks. Keep skin calm the last week.
MOXI + BBL Heroic is performed exclusively at our Sacramento location.
Your MOXI + BBL Heroic journey begins with a thorough consultation at Younger You Aesthetics, where your provider evaluates your Fitzpatrick skin type, photoaging grade, and textural concerns. This assessment determines the optimal MOXI fluence level and BBL Heroic filter selection for your specific complexion — ensuring safe, personalized treatment.
On treatment day, your skin is cleansed and a topical numbing cream is applied 30–45 minutes prior to the procedure. Younger You Aesthetics providers calibrate laser parameters to your skin assessment before the session begins.
Your provider begins with BBL Heroic, delivering broadband light pulses in systematic passes across treatment zones. The device's SmartFilter technology automatically adjusts pulse delivery for consistent coverage. Most patients describe the sensation as a warm snap followed by brief cooling.
Following BBL Heroic, your provider performs the MOXI fractional laser pass. The 1927 nm wavelength creates microscopic treatment zones across the skin surface, triggering the body's natural healing response to generate new collagen. The full combo treatment typically takes 45–60 minutes.
Younger You Aesthetics is a nurse practitioner-led practice. Su Mann, NP, received advanced aesthetic training alongside leading cosmetic surgeons — a clinical foundation that elevates the safety and precision of every laser treatment. SCITON laser devices require expert parameter calibration; NP-level training ensures your skin is in qualified hands.
MOXI and BBL Heroic are manufactured by SCITON, the industry standard in broadband light technology. Younger You Aesthetics operates SCITON-certified platforms at all three Northern California locations, maintained to manufacturer specifications for consistent, clinical-grade results.
Book Your TreatmentMOXI is generally well-tolerated across Fitzpatrick skin types I–IV. BBL Heroic, as a broadband light device, requires conservative parameter settings for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV–VI) to minimize melanin competition risk. Your Younger You Aesthetics provider will assess your Fitzpatrick type at consultation to determine the safest and most effective protocol for your complexion.
Single MOXI treats texture and dermal collagen; single BBL Heroic targets surface pigmentation and vascular lesions. The combo addresses both simultaneously — maximizing treatment efficiency and delivering results that neither modality achieves alone. Patients seeking comprehensive photodamage reversal typically see greater improvement from the combo than from sequential single-modality sessions.
Most MOXI + BBL Heroic patients experience 24–48 hours of redness followed by 3–5 days of the MOXI "coffee ground" shedding phase. During shedding, treated skin appears mottled brown before naturally exfoliating. Most patients are comfortable in social settings within 4–5 days post-treatment.
BBL Heroic results — including pigmentation correction and redness reduction — are visible within 2–3 weeks as treated chromophores naturally resolve. MOXI's collagen-remodeling benefits develop progressively over 4–8 weeks. Most patients report peak improvement approximately 6–8 weeks after their final treatment session.
Most patients achieve optimal results with 2–3 MOXI + BBL Heroic combo sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Patients with mild photoaging may see significant improvement after a single session. Your Younger You Aesthetics provider will recommend a personalized treatment series at consultation.
Yes. MOXI + BBL Heroic pairs well with complementary treatments including Sylfirm RF Microneedling (for deeper dermal tightening) and injectable neurotoxins (Botox, Dysport) for dynamic wrinkle reduction. Your provider will recommend appropriate sequencing and minimum spacing between treatments during your consultation.
