How long after CO2 fully ablative laser can I go to take a sun bath?

XByMeX
I know tanning is a bad thing, but i say it just for an example. If i go for a co2 fully ablative laser. When i can fully restore my lifestyle where i am not using any SPF and can expose myself to sun as i am doing it now, before the laser. With 0 chance of gettin a pigmentation? Thank you.
