Do non traditional uses of minoxidil work?

thefoge
I've been reading alot of recent posts/articles on the Internet (reliable source huh lol)about the use of minoxidil on places other then the head. Is it true that it will work effectively and permanently on facial (beard or eyebrows), body (arms, legs, chest) hair?
