Hair transplant in scalp scar?

mlc2791clm
I had a melanoma in situ removed from the top of my scalp 3 years ago and it left a quarter sized bald spot. The skin appears to have blood flow(blanchable) but is thinner than the rest of my scalp. Is it possible that hair could be transplanted in that spot? Has anyone had success? Thank you in advance!
