It doesn't matter how low your serum T gets, once the follicles have matured into adult whiskers, that's how they stay. If you want to get rid of your facial hair, you will need to do some form of electrolysis or laser hair removal. Sorry to rain on anyone's parade.
I'm glad someone in the know has stated this. I keep reading how those using pharmaceuticals need full-body electrolysis or laser hair reduction as part of all they go through while transitioning, then I come here and keep reading how PM or BO has nearly eliminated everyone's body/facial hair, and I think there is a lot of self-delusion taking place. It might happen in rare cases, some natal women have little to no body hair, naturally, but most women shave or wax a lot more than their genitals, and they have real estrogen flowing as opposed to weak mimics.
