Is this permanent damage from Erbium laser? Is there any treatment that will help? (Photos)

Asked By:DeniseM1234 in Dallas, TX

I had a fairly aggressive Erbium laser treatment 12 weeks ago. I had no fine lines in this area prior to laser. My skin is now covered in these lines and extremely shiny. Is this permanent damage? Is there any treatment or will this resolve on its own? The aesthetician indicated she had never seen this condition after laser tx
