I understand that the Sciton Moxi is intended for the treatment of actinic keratosis, and treatment of benign pigmented lesions such as, but not limited to lentigos (age spots), solar lentigos (sunspots) and ephelides(freckles), and other dermatological conditions and that clinical results may vary in different skin types. I understand that as with any similar type of treatment there is a possibility of rare side effects such as scarring and permanent discoloration as well as short-term effects such as reddening, mild burning, and temporary discoloration of the skin. These effects have all been fully explained to me.

I am not pregnant or nursing and will notify the practitioner if I think I could be pregnant. I understand that MOXI treatment is considered cosmetic and is not covered by insurance, therefore I am fully responsible for all costs of treatment. I have requested that Arsenault Aesthetics DermSpa attempt to improve the appearance of my skin, including pigment and texture with MOXI. I understand that there are NO GUARANTEES as results vary from person to person.
