No systemic disease a hair transpant is rfused

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Beard hair is a genetic trait similar to the color of your eyes and hair.  Some people are born with the genes for beard hair some are not.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

As beards grow in, they often grow in patchy at the start of the process. Many young men want to accelerate their beard growth and ask
about it. It takes age (genetic triggers which occur in family lines) so
if you want to find out when your beard will grow out, you need to find out
when your father or grandfather started to grow theirbeard. Hormones should have kicked in
nicely by the time a man reaches 18 but he must wait out his genetics
as hormone alone are not responsible for the onset of beard grown. Beard
transplants can be done when the young man is a bit older (over 25) if the
beard has not grown in yet
