Can you have laser hair removal on face whilst taking Azithromycin?

I have Cystic Fibrosis and my doctor won't take me off Azithromycin, or give me an alternative. But I have facial hair that is causing me a lot of mental distress. I have had a small patch test done under my chin which didn't cause any adverse side effects. But my clinic says that Azithromycin makes you photosensitive. And what could go wrong if I had a photosensitive reaction to the laser hair removal?
