How long after a CO2 laser treatment should I wait before starting a series of non-ablative fractional laser treatments?

I'm thinking of following up my C02 laser acne scar treatment with a series of treatments with the Palomar Icon 1540nm XD laser. How long should I wait before starting my first treatment? I'm told the C02 can only produce about a 50% improvement which is why I plan on following it up with the Icon laser.
