I'm a 27-year-old guy and I'm having trouble growing a beard on my cheeks. I do have some beard growth below my chin and my moustache looks normal, but my cheeks just won't fill in. Why am I dealing with this issue at my age, and is there anything I can do about it? I'm curious if there's a solution or if I'm just going to have to live with this.
