Hi . greetings.. This could be genetically or constitutionally delayed for some individuals. So don't worry. This could also be a hereditary factor. You could continue to use minoxidil or peptide based solutions without any side effects although their efficacy in improving facial hair is not fully proven. Hope this helps. Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal
