Was the dr a dermatologist. If yes go back to him/ her to resolve your concerns. If not, you are most likely setting yourself up with wrong expectations. It is not likely to increase growth in beard area and irritation of facial skin very possible
Next Steps
it would be best to get it examined and get a prescription properly with a dermatologist. you may also choose to do an online consultation with me for the same.
Health Tips
