Over the Past Year, I’m Seeing Bald Patches in My Otherwise Full Beard!!

i have always have had a full beard- past year i am losing facial hair- i am getting bald patches and lines of missing hair on my cheeks and chin-what is this? is there anything to cure this? i would appreciate any suggestions.–thank you

You need to see a good dermatologist, as such bald patches may reflect conditions such as alopecia areata. It’s possible this could be stress related, or an allergy, or something else altogether.

I can not say much more without seeing you myself… but even if you saw me in my Los Angeles office, I would still want the opinion of a dermatologist.
