No results Erbium laser resurfacing after 2 weeks?

Erin_A
I had an agressive Erbium laser resurfacing combined with non ablative Erbium laser 2 weeks ago. The settings were high and I had a week downtime, so it wasn't a superficial treatment. I know the results improve over time, but is it normal that there's no improvement in fine lines whatsoever at this stage? I don't have deep wrinkles, it's just the fine lines and rough texture that I wanted to erase. So why don't I see results by now?
