A woman exposing her 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) for laser hair removal

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to expose her 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) for the purpose of laser hair removal?

Answer:
There is no power except in Allah. She exposes her 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) for the sake of hair removal. She cannot remove her hair herself. This is not permissible for her. She removes her hair herself. She does not allow anyone else to remove it. Not by laser, nor by any other means. This is forbidden. Yes.
