Does laser hair removal interfere with chemotherapy?

Hello there! I'm curious about the validity of the claim that the body rejects medication when someone who has undergone laser hair removal is undergoing chemotherapy. Thank you for your insight.

Laser devices produce light of a certain wavelength. In laser epilation The light they produce is only absorbed by the cells in the hair follicle and goes deeper. It is light that does not descend and therefore does not have any side effects on the body. Laser Hair removal triggers cancer or inhibits the effectiveness of chemotherapy The situation never exists.
