Help me get rid of my hair chin

Im 47 now and for the last couple of years, I have noticed I have begun sprouting a lovely hairy chin

Well it is NOT lovely, i hate it

I have tried:-
plucking,
shaving (only in emergencies)
ILP Therapy (at home with an expensive machine)

The plucking and shaving only last temporary and I have never noticed a reduction in hair growth with the ILP

Any ideas at all how i can reduce or get rid of this, without having to pluck every two days

The hair removal creams for face work well for me

I tried hair remover creams and it didnt remove a single hair, but left a red mark on my face that i felt very conscious of at work lol

I think I am ready for a more permanent solution than plucking now, I am constantly running my fingers over my chin, The hairs are very dark

What is the difference between Lazer and Electrolysis? if anyone can advise please that would be a massive help, thank you

I'm mid 30's, I have very dark hairs on my chin, neck, chest and breast/nipples!!!!
Few enough in number that I can mange with plucking frequently!!!
I just thought it was normal to get hairy with age!!! 🙈
Following for more hair removal advice

I had about 8 sessions of IPL on my chin followed by maybe 10 sessions of electroysis. I started getting skin reactions (like burns) so had to stop. I still have chin hairs. Which are mostly white so IPL was never going to work great. Razors are my friends.
