After a beard transplant, if I'm applying acne medication around my face near my beard, will that affect my beard hair growth?

Asked By:R7 in Pennsylvania, PA

Stupid question I know, but I just want to be sure. I started getting lots of acne from biotin so I'm probably going to stop taking it if it keeps going at such a rate. Will applying acne medication right near my beard affect my beard hair growth? Also, what day is it safe to trim my beard? I'm on day 16 at the moment, but I don't need to trim right away. Just curious when is a really safe day though if hypothetically I wanted to trim the full thing? Thanks you guys! You've helped me so much
