How much does a repeat hair transplant cost, approximately?

Asked By:ugrls in Los Angeles, CA

I got myself a hair transplant from the back of my head to my forehead about 10 years back. It's quite good except the density is so low that I can't have any hair style apart from a side-part. Is it possible to increase density by getting a repeat transplant? If so, how much would that cost? The area is approximately 1 inch x 5 inches. Also, where will the hair follicles be harvested from this time? Will that also leave a linear scar on the back of my head? Thanks!
