Cincinnati MOXI and Columbus LaseMD Treatments: Gentle Laser Resurfacing
At BB Aesthetic & Wellness, we understand that achieving healthy, radiant skin requires advanced technology paired with expert care. Our practice, led by Dr. Terrill Burnsworth, a physician and pharmacologist with over 25 years of experience who won 2024 Physician of the Year at LMH, offers cutting-edge laser resurfacing treatments designed to address some of the most challenging skin concerns, including stubborn melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and textural irregularities. We have two different laser resurfacing options, one at each location: MOXI in Cincinnati and LaseMD in Columbus. These are two different brands of innovative technology that delivers identical, exceptional outcomes.
How Does Laser Resurfacing Work?
Each of these gentle yet effective non-ablative fractional laser treatments create controlled micro-injuries (or micro-channels) in the skin. This process stimulates the skin’s natural healing response and encourages collagen remodeling from within. Whether you’re targeting sun damage, uneven skin tone, melasma, or fine lines, these treatments are safe for all skin types and offer noticeable results with minimal downtime.

What Makes BB Aesthetic & Wellness Unique
At BB Aesthetic & Wellness, we take a comprehensive approach to MOXI and LaseMD treatments that sets us apart from other providers. Unlike most facilities, we require thorough skin preparation using medical-grade ALASTIN skincare to optimize treatment outcomes. This pre-treatment protocol ensures your skin is properly conditioned for the best possible results. Our multi-modal treatment philosophy means we don’t simply provide isolated services. Instead, our providers strategically combine MOXI and LaseMD with complementary treatments like BBL, Halo, and DiamondGlow facials for comprehensive skin rejuvenation. Our consultation process incorporates advanced 3D facial scanner technology to evaluate skin health, hydration levels, and develop personalized treatment plans. Every treatment includes complimentary medical-grade skincare products and detailed aftercare instructions to protect your investment and maximize healing.

Frequently Asked Questions About MOXI and LaseMD
Does MOXI or LaseMD hurt?
Both treatments require numbing cream, and pain tolerance varies by individual. Lighter skin types typically experience a sunburn-like sensation, while darker skin types may find the experience more intense. The numbing cream significantly reduces discomfort during treatment. At BB Aesthetic & Wellness, we take extra care to ensure your comfort by applying numbing cream for a full 30 minutes and customizing energy levels based on your individual pain tolerance and skin type.
How many treatments will I need?
Most patients notice subtle results after the first treatment, with others observing changes before they do themselves. For optimal results, we typically recommend three treatments, with melasma patients often requiring three to five sessions. We typically recommend packages of 3 treatments, and we customize your treatment plan based on your specific skin concerns and goals during your comprehensive consultation.
What's the downtime for Cincinnati MOXI or Columbus LaseMD?
Expect dry, sandpapery skin for approximately one week, with initial pinkness and puffiness for one to two days. Makeup can be applied after 24 hours but may not apply smoothly until the week mark due to skin texture changes. We provide you with complimentary medical-grade skincare products including hyaluronic acid serum, gentle cleanser, and sunscreen to support healing and protect your investment in your skin.
Can I get this treatment if I have a tan?
We recommend patients avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanners before treatment. While some customization is possible, excessive tanning makes it difficult to achieve desired results. Our team will assess your skin tone during consultation and may recommend postponing treatment for a couple of weeks if you’ve had recent sun exposure to ensure optimal safety and results.
How often do I need maintenance treatments?
For maintenance, we recommend at least once yearly, though some people may benefit from treatments three times per year due to increased sun exposure. Regular maintenance helps preserve your MOXI or LaseMD results. We help you develop a personalized maintenance schedule and offer quarterly BBL treatments combined with biannual laser resurfacing to keep your skin in optimal condition year-round.
Payment & Pricing Options
MOXI and LaseMD treatments are considered cosmetic procedures and are not covered by insurance. However, we accept HSA and FSA cards for all laser resurfacing services. We offer package pricing for optimal results, with most patients benefiting from a series of 3 treatments. Our team will provide itemized receipts and treatment documentation to support any HSA/FSA claims or reimbursement requests.
