If I do under arms laser treatment, will it be safe for future and is it true excessive body spray may cause breast cancer?

Laser hair removal is safe for the underarms, provided you find the right laser provider in the right setting with a well equipped laser system. Because underarm antiperspirants or deodorants are applied near the breast and contain potentially harmful ingredients, several scientists and others have suggested a possible connection between their use and breast cancer.However, no scientific evidence links the use of these products to the development of breast cancer.
