Radiofrequency treatment (for aesthetics) during my fertile period. Can it damage the pregnancy?

November 6, 2015
Asked By:worriedbrazilian in Brazil, IN

My period/menstruation came at 9th day of october, and I did radio frequency application in my breasts at 19th day of october (same month). I was having relations with my husband and I discovered myself pregnant. Now I am worried the radio frequency laser treatment (aesthetic) can harm the Celular division of the fetus. Am I being paranoid? Please help me.
