I have a little scrap on my face in the mustache and there is no hair growth. What can I do to get a clean mustache look without any gaps?
Dear sir, we are aware that a specialist can administer oral drugs or move on to implants to help fill gaps. And a dermatologist would be a better guide because home remedies often work on placebo effect, they can neither be preserved, nor is there any way to extract those chemicals from your preferred ingredients which will support your skin type while encouraging hair growth. If you want, you can take up consultation services from Hair Transplant Surgery doctors in Mumbai or any other city based on your preference.
