Can I get a hair transplant even if I’m not balding or receding?

DaveJames
I’m 20 years old and thinking about having a hair transplant in a few years, my hairline isn’t currently receding and I don’t have a family history of baldness, however, I have always had a very large natural forehead which really exposes my temples. I was wondering if I would be eligible for a hair transplant to get a better head of hair? Or do I have to be balding to be considered?
