Question 2

What Results Will I See After Smoker’s Lines Treatment?

Accepted Answer

The results you’ll see will vary according to the treatment chosen to resolve your smoker’s lines. Hyaluronic injectable fillers can produce exceptional results immediately and can last anywhere from 6-18 months, while fat transfer can provide results that are even longer-lasting or indefinite. CO2 fractional resurfacing is typically used for more severe wrinkles and can have initial results in several days with an optimal outcome in 1-2 weeks.

While most patients can see significant improvement with just one wrinkle reduction treatment, some patients may need a series of treatments to achieve the results they want. Dr. Karolak will discuss your projected results at the time of your initial consultation.

Question 3

Is There Any Downtime With Smoker’s Lines Treatment?

Accepted Answer

Like your results, the amount of time needed for recovery can vary based on your individual treatment plan. Injectable fillers plump and hydrate the skin without any downtime. However, fat transfer procedures typically require more time for the harvest area to fully heal. CO2 fractional laser treatments can have no downtime or several days to a week of recovery depending on the depth of treatment.
