I'm 23 about to turn 24, and I have a baby face which I can't stand. I do not look my age, and I probably look 5 or 6 years younger. I always get those baby face comments which I'm tired of. I really can't grow any facial hair, and if I do, after a week, I look all scruffy. Meaning, I can't grow a goatee, or even a beard which would really make me feel better about myself. Is there anything than can help me grow facial hair?

Answer: Baby face options Thanks for the question, your best bet is to send pics to see what can be done, if you do have sparse hair growth, a beard transplant can be performed to thicken the area, or a discussion can be had to partially thicken the beard in certain areas that can give the appearance of more hair growth. There are many factors to take into account before considering a beard transplant so you will definitely need a consult to evaluate/discuss your options.

Answer: Facial hair growth There really aren't any products out there to increase facial hair growth. I would look at the males in your family to see what you can expect to achieve in terms of facial hair development. It can lag behind other areas of development. I would not advise a 23yo to do a hair transplant to the beard. I would want to wait until you are further along before suggesting that treatment. There is a limit to the number of hairs you can transplant. You might want to save them if you ever develop male pattern hair loss.

Answer: Promoting facial hair growth There are a variety of reasons for poor facial hair growth including hormonal imbalance and genetic factors. The use of Rogaine 5% has been reported to help when applied topically. Beard transplants have become en vogue especially with the recent beard trends.

Answer: Facial hair growth Thank you for your question and for sharing your concerns. Although hair transplantation is an option for you, it might not be the best one to consider as the hair on the back of your head may not be the best suited to transplant into a beard area. There are several non-surgical options to consider:1) You can try low-level light to see if increasing the blood flow to the areas will help stimulate hair growth. 2) Platelet rich plasma may also do the same to improve blood flow3) You could try minoxidil or Latisse topically to see if this helps.Other considerations is to have your hormone levels checked and see if there are other underlying reasons for inadequate hair growth.
