Does laser hair removal on bikini line affect pregnancy/fertility and is there any chance of birth defects if lasering over ovaries?
Answer: Laser hair removal
We do not have evidence that energy generated by a laser device for hair removal would interfere with your baby's development. The energy only reaches the dermis of the skin, and not even the fat and especially not the muscle below.

Answer: Laser Hair Removal Will Not Affect Fertility You can safely have laser hair removal if you are trying to get pregnant – there will be no untoward effects. We do not recommend any laser or light treatments when you are pregnant, so we would not treat you if you become pregnant. But lasers are safe if you are not.
