Brief Answer:
Improper facial hair: A totally normal condition.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome and thanks for posting your query to the forum.

I can understand your concern for improper facial hair. It is sometimes really distressing for young men like you for the improper hair growth as per your age.

I have gone through your picture and interpreted the query and after analyzing all the facts let me first reassure and counsel you that most of the times your kind of problem is totally normal condition which we very commonly see in day to day practice. Young men like you who do not have properly grown beard and mustaches are quite concerned and anxious to grow them fully by any means.

Let you understand some medical facts regarding hair growth: The growth of beard and mustaches is totally dependent upon our genetics, it means whatever genes we are carrying for the growth- from our mother and father's side are responsible for that pattern of hair growth and other of features such health, height and everything.

It does not mean that we should be totally alike our parents but it means whatever the pattern was present in our forefathers, the same pattern will be exhibited in ourselves also. We usually see this kind of pattern of less mustaches and beard in Asiatic people.

Other than the normal pattern, sometimes it can be due to less male hormones or endocrinologist problem in a person.

Now as I can get that you have proper hair growth over genital area and chest so it is not related to hormones and is simple condition related to genetics rather then hormonal problem.

Now you must be wondering that why you have specifically less hair over beard location then. It is due to simple fact of the genes you are carrying. You may say that your father and bother have normal hair and why less in yourself then. It is due to the fact that you are not carrying exactly the same genes which your father or brother are carrying.

We carry our genes from our forefather and forefather of our forefathers. In yourself you carry a gene with less hair growth on beard area due to less hair roots and accordingly you have less hair.

There is no need of any investigation in your condition and so do not waste your precious money in same. As you got that this is not a disease and accordingly there is no treatment for same.

I very often consult young men like you very anxious to grow hair on any cost. Even they take or apply one or the other medicines. But I see a lot of side effects and ultimately getting some serious problems.

So I personally suggest you to not to get fascinated by one or other advertizements related to it. There is no homeopathic or ayurvedic or any other medicine or drug which can help in growing hair.

For the part of hair fall: can you please tell me how many hair fall everyday. Do you see any hair on your pillow and in bathroom. I can make out that you have very poor schedule. Do let me know if you eat any fruits or green vegetables.

I hope this information will help you. I will be glad to reply any further queries.

Brief Answer:
HAIR FALL & DANDRUFF: various suggestions and guidance.

Detailed Answer:
Hello young fellow,

Welcoem again to the forum and thanks for your further follow up.

Let me guide you further regarding your hair fall and dandruff issue.

FOR THE PART OF HAIR FALL: It is quite common to find hair fall in men which is known as "male pattern baldness" is most common cause of hair fall in young men of your age..

This process of falling starts by 18-20 years and is highest in between the age of 20 to 30 years. I can see you are a young man of 28 years. So it is quite obvious that you can have the starting of this problem of hair fall just because of hormonal influence.

Other than male pattern baldness there can be falling of hair all over the scalp can occur after simple stress, improper diet and related issues too !!!.

For the betterment eat at least 3-4 different fruits saplings per day. Add green leafy vegetables additionally in the pulses which contains lot of iron and vitamins in it. Sprouts are the best source of fibers, minerals especially iron, vitamins and proteins too.

FOR DANDRUFF :

Scientifically and medically our skin is a multiple layered structure. Our skin gets renewed every day. The layer which is present on the top today will be fallen off tomorrow. It will not be present tomorrow and would be dead skin in form of scales. This process is not actually visible on normally. So we can say we are just one day old from our skin most superficially.

Now in some persons it is renewed at a faster pace. Because of hygiene and scalp hair this dead skin in form of scales gets entangled and trapped in form of visible of scales known as dandruff. It varies from person to person and also on other of factors which makes the difference inter-individually.

We can not change our own tendency to renew the skin but the personal measures of hygiene as well as the environmental factors can be modified.

For the remedy part follow the things below:

Wash your scalp daily. Stick to one good shampoo which is suiting your hair. Do not use any kind of hair oil or any oil on your scalp.

This is my personal suggestion as a dermatologist that rather than medicines, simple daily regimen works better than anything.

I hope this information will help you. If you have further queries I will be glad to help.

"Wish you good health"
