What can I do about embarrassing female facial hair?

AlisaKat
I'm 22, over the past few years the hairs around my jaw/chin area have been getting worse. There's way more, they're coarser, darker & noticeable. I'm constantly plucking them daily but then get acne/ingrown hair bumps all over the area. Someone recommend I shave which I did and they grew in 10 times worse! I've tried at home IPL which didn't work I've also heard people say they've spent thousands on professional laser hair removal and it didn't even work? What can I do? Help!
