Morr 5% Side effect
I am using Morr 5% for 3 months now, I am noticing progress but recently I noticed unwanted hairs have started growing around the eyes, like the area where eyebrows end and a little above the eyebrows.(See the attached pic) What should I do? Should I continue using it? How should I proceed forward?

facial hair will go back to normal state once minoxidil is discontinued.

Apply a hairband at night when apply the lotion, it should not trickle down. Wash hands after application. While sleeping your hands touch the face and indirect contact is there. Apply only 1 ml solution that too in night.
Next Steps
for the hairs on the face you can go for laser hair reduction
