Default Need help AC is blowing a smoke like mist into the cabin

I have had my car 2011 for 18months now and 24k miles. I started to notice the problem last week and it gets worst and worst. I would start the car every morning and have the ac at 3 bars and at 70 degrees about 5 minutes later a consistent white mist of smoke is coming out of the vents. The white mist of smoke doesn't have a smell.

Has anyone known of this issue? I might have to take it back to JM lexus to have them look at it.

This has happened to my mercedes but not on any of my lexus cars. I was told that it had to do with the conditions of the environment, like the temperature of the cabin and of the car that create the condensation in mist form. I wouldnt worry about it too much.
