I wonder how long it takes after the Total FX treatment for fine lines and wrinkles to diminish, if not disappear? Most of the before/after pictures for Total FX show that wrinkles/lines have practically vanished. I had Total FX one week ago, and up to now, I see zero change in the appearance of lines/wrinkles I wanted to treat.

Answer: You will see your wrinkles diminish Thanks for your question and hang in there – you will see your wrinkles diminish. Most of the time, patients will see changes within several weeks after their CO2 fractional laser treatment and the results will continue to improve over the first six months after the procedure. Using the proper post-treatment skin care routine will also be of help here – so make sure that you speak to your provider and get on skin care to help make things the best they can be.

Answer: How long depends on multiple factors
Generally, the immediate change you see after a Total Fx laser treatment is an overall evening of your skin color . The improvement in wrinkles is a gradual improvement that takes 4-6 months to occur that results from collagen remodeling and new collagen formation. Having said that, the rate of improvement also depends on how aggressive the laser treatment was. To get rid of wrinkles, your recovery time from the laser treatment should've been around 7-10 days. Anything less than that and you will probably need more than one treatment and the wrinkle improvement will be less dramatic. As a rule of thumb, you will not get of wrinkles unless it takes you 7-10 days to recover from the procedure, whether it is laser resurfacing, a chemical peel, or a plasma treatment.
