Dear, facial hair is genetically determined. Genetic inheritance is complex and does not necessarily have to be in line with your father. Therefore, from a general standpoint there is not much you can do. But if you are really concerned, consult a dermatologist. Certain medicines are available that can boost growth of facial hair, but need to be used under supervision. Please do not waste your money on fake products, approach a qualified dermatologist.
