Change baudrate in pySerial while connected to device?

I'm trying to write a script for a LCD device called the uLCD32-pt and the issue is that you are required to connect to it with a baudrate of 9600 and in order to get a higher baud rate you have to connect to it, send a change baudrate command, then send the new commands at the newly set baudrate. My lcd display is going super slow when drawing pixels and I know its because of the baudrate so is their any way to change the baudrate after connecting to a device? Here is my code so far?

import serial
import time

#Connect to uLCD32-pt with autobaud
ser = serial.Serial(
    port='/dev/ttyUSB0', 
    baudrate=9600, 
    timeout=1,
    parity=serial.PARITY_NONE,
    stopbits=serial.STOPBITS_ONE,
    bytesize=serial.EIGHTBITS
)
ser.write("U")


while(True):
    #15 x white pixels
    ser.write(chr(0x0050)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x0001)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x000A)+chr(0x00FF)+chr(0x00FF))#1
    ser.write(chr(0x0050)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x0002)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x000A)+chr(0x00FF)+chr(0x00FF))#2
    ser.write(chr(0x0050)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x0003)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x000A)+chr(0x00FF)+chr(0x00FF))#3
    ser.write(chr(0x0050)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x0004)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x000A)+chr(0x00FF)+chr(0x00FF))#4
    ser.write(chr(0x0050)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x0005)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x000A)+chr(0x00FF)+chr(0x00FF))#5
    ser.write(chr(0x0050)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x0006)+chr(0x0000)+chr(0x000A)+chr(0x00FF)+chr(0x00FF))#6

In the documentation, the description of the baud rate property says:

Read or write current baud rate setting.

So I expect this line to work:

ser.baudrate = 115200
