Is it possible to transplant hair from my head to my armpits? I don't have body hair left to use it for the transplant (Photo)

Asked By:inkedpiercedguy in New York, NY

I am a 37 year old Hispanic male. About 10 years ago I had laser hair removal on my armpits. I want a hair transplant to get VERY, VERY hairy armpits. Questions: Is it possible? How big is the risk of rejection of head hair to the armpits? Estimated total cost for both armpits? Recovery time? I am a white collar and I would need to go back to my office as soon as possible. Scars in my head? Scars in my armpits? Side effects? I am willing to travel within the US to have this procedure.
