It is not normal to have redness and bumps after 8 months.  You should to contact your doctor even if your doctor is not local.  You can also see a local dermatologist for skin issues.

Follow up with your doctor if you are concerned about your scarring or "marks".  It may or may not be permanent.   It may take several more months for it to fade.

Beard hair is a genetic trait.  There is no medication to grow a beard.  Some try topical minoxidil but you would need to use it everyday and there may be side effects.  You should see a doctor before starting such treatment.

Everyone heals differently.  If you feel your healing and redness is not normal you need to see your doctor as soon as possible as it may be a sign of infection (which you cannot diagnose with photos).

Beard hair is a genetic trait similar to the color of your eyes and hair.  10% minoxidil is not generally recommended even for scalp since it can have unwanted systemic side effects.
