What are the side effects of laser hair removal on pregnant women?

Asked By:AJS0919 in Inland Empire California

I am six months pregnant and am wondering if there are any issues with my receiving Laser hair removal on my legs and some Laser treatments on my face. The pregnancy books recommend against it despite any evidence to show it is bad. I'd really like to get it, but I don't want to harm my baby.
