this may be a dumb question so please dont anyone get angry at me for asking but can u get laser tx done during pregnancy?i am supposed to go for a laser tx on wed for acne and have recently found out i am about 7 weeks along.my doc told me it was safe while trying to conceive so i am assuming it would still be safe- he says it is just a light pulse but how do u guys feel about this???

Hello,

Topical LASER properly applied should not put your early pregnancy at any risk.

Best regards,

Dr. Downing
