The person hasn't started laser hair removal on my underarms YET, but am wondering if these two treatments can be done at the same time or if the botox interferes with the laser treatment.

Answer: Botox at the Same Time as Laser Hair Removal?
Hello. Anytime we have a patient undertaking injection procedures and laser procedures at the same time and in the same location, we suggest having the injections after the laser. This is the safest way to avoid any conflict between the treatment.
Scheduled your Botox 1-2 weeks after the laser treatments and you will do just fine with both.

Answer: Can Botox Injections for Axillary Hyperhidrosis be Combined with Laser Hair Removal Treatments
Botox injections for excessive underarm sweating should not be performed at the same time as a laser hair removal treatment. Botox does not interfere with the laser treatment, but the laser treatment may interfere with the activity of the Botox.
If Botox is injected into the under arm it should be done at least one week prior to the hair removal treatment; this will ensure the Botox has had time to work effectively. You may find that it reduces the pain associated with the hair removal treatment. If Botox is injected in the underarm after a hair removal treatment, it should be performed after any swelling or redness from the hair removal has subsided; so one week following hair removal should be fine.
