Answer: Can a Person with No Hair Loss Get Hair Transplant?
A hair transplant procedure can only increase the number of hairs within a given region of your head. They cannot enhance the thickness of your hair. The thickness/texture of your hair shafts is determined by the DNA in your hair follicles.
The way a hair transplant works is really by transferring hair follicles from one region to another. With women, the only place to get these follicles is from the head itself. Some women develop bald spots due to hair extensions.
So hair follicles from other regions are inserted into these bald areas. But if you have thin hair all over, there would be no point in transferring these hair follicles to other regions if you are aiming for a fuller and thicker end result.
