Genetics is the primary factor determining your facial hair potential, but a 2018 study on testosterone therapy showed it can influence growth for some men with hypogonadism. While you can't change your DNA, you can create the optimal environment for your facial hair to thrive and help boost its growth through targeted habits and a healthy lifestyle.

According to dermatologists, genetics is the primary factor determining beard density, not supplements. This means while supplements can support hair health by addressing nutritional deficiencies, they cannot fundamentally change your genetic blueprint to fix a patchy beard.

Genetics is often cited as the primary reason for uneven facial hair, but a nutritional deficiency can also cause a patchy beard. Research indicates that deficiencies in several key vitamins and minerals can impact hair health, potentially leading to sparse or uneven growth.
