Hi Kay,
According to the FDA, the only contraindication listed for this medication states that "patients with a known hypersensitivity to Humira or any of its components should not be taking it."
Ref: fda.gov/ohrms/dockets/ac/03/briefing/3930B1_02_B-Abbott-Humira%20Prescribing%20Info.pdf
However, in this case, if you think that certain side effects or mechanisms of Humira could potentially increase your risk of being overly sensitive to the laster treatments, I would just suggest talking to your dermatologist first before moving forward with the procedure.
I hope this helps!
