Absolutely. Every genital piercing at Apollo is performed in a completely private room with a locked door. Your comfort, privacy, and dignity are our top priorities. We maintain strict confidentiality and provide a professional, clinical environment that puts clients at ease. Many clients tell us they were nervous beforehand but felt completely comfortable once they experienced our professional approach.
You must be 18 years or older with valid government-issued photo ID to receive any genital piercing at our Los Angeles studio. No exceptions. This policy applies to all intimate piercings including Prince Albert, Frenum, Lorum, Christina, VCH, HCH, and labia piercings.
Genital piercings at Apollo are $200 per piercing for the service. Jewelry is sold separately. All genital piercings—Prince Albert, VCH, Christina, Frenum, and more—are $200 each. Nipple piercings are $75 single or $125 for a pair. We provide transparent pricing with no hidden fees.
Healing times for genital piercings vary by type:
Proper aftercare is essential for optimal healing. We provide detailed instructions and ongoing support.
Pain is highly individual, but most genital piercings are described as a quick, intense pinch lasting 1-2 seconds. Many clients report that the anticipation is worse than the actual piercing. VCH piercings are often described as one of the quickest and least painful piercings due to the thin tissue. Prince Albert piercings involve more sensation but are over quickly. Our experienced piercers use proper technique to minimize discomfort and ensure a smooth experience.
Apollo offers a full range of male genital piercings in Los Angeles:
Consultations are available to discuss anatomy suitability and placement options.
Our Los Angeles studio offers all female genital piercings:
Not all piercings are suitable for all anatomies. We offer consultations to determine the best options for you.
We recommend abstaining from sexual activity for a minimum of 2-4 weeks after your genital piercing, depending on the type. Even after this period, barrier protection (condoms, dental dams) should be used until fully healed. Rough activity should be avoided for several months. Our piercers will provide specific guidelines based on your piercing type during your aftercare consultation.
All genital piercings at Apollo use implant-grade titanium (ASTM F136) or 14k/18k solid gold from premium brands like BVLA, Industrial Strength, and Anatometal. We never use surgical steel, mystery metals, or low-quality jewelry for intimate piercings. The specific jewelry style depends on the piercing type—curved barbells for Prince Albert and VCH, straight barbells for Frenum, and rings or curved bars for other piercings.
