We have been trying to conceive this month and today is 12dpo. just had a laser hair removal done today,now wondering if it could harm if im pregnant?

There is no: potential for harm unless you were exposed to radiation or solvents that could be absorbed through the skin. Neither of these is likely from Laser hair removal. Relax. Lasers are light waves not "radiation" in the standard sense.
