Burns around and on the labia after 5th laser hair removal treatment. (photos)

ratcliffk264
I had my 5th Brazilian laser hair removal treatment last Tuesday night. Starting maybe Thursday, my area was sensitive but nothing I couldn't handle. Starting on Friday, it began burning and it hurt to urinate. There are sores on the outside of the labia and on the inside. I went to a CareNow clinic and they gave me antibiotic cream to apply to the area. Is this from the laser being too strong this past session or is there something else wrong?
