Is Hair Transplantation Recommended For Facial Hair Growth?
Hello Doctor, i am a 42 year old male who cant grow any facial hair. However, i am able to grow hair everywhere else. I sustained an injury at the age of 16 in my scrotum area. I have been taking testosterone patches and gel for over 20 years and no help. What do you recommend? Facial hair transplant? Thank you

Hello,
Your problem of Hypotrichosis on beard may be genetic in nature. Hair transplant on beard area is not possible.
It is just a cosmetic problem. Accept it and take it easy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilyas Patel
