Hi,

You seem to have androgenetic alopecia. You applied minoxidil solution, but you get reaction on face. I think you may be sensitive to minoxidil. So, avoid to apply minoxidil.

You may continue finesteride 1 mg daily along with biotin 10mg.

You may apply mild steroid solution on scalp. Cleanse the scalp with ketoconazole shampoo.

Have patience for the good result.

Thanks.
