or can get hair from somewhere else other than my scalp? This is for my sideburns and not sure I want my hair's scalp as sideburns! thanks.
Answer: Yes, but don't know anyone to do it for you Just like any other organ transplant, hair can be transplanted from one person to another. This would require the same genetic testing. In fact, it has been done between a bone marrow donor and recipient with success.

Answer: Can I use someone else's hair for a hair transplant ? The only way to do this would be if you had an identical twin. Otherwise, it is not possible unless you took powerful immunosuppressive medications which no doctor would give for a cosmetic issue. What we do is borrow some hair follicles from the back and sides of the scalp which are genetically programmed to never fall out and move them to the areas that need hair. This can be done for the sideburns. Good luck.

Answer: Can I Receive Someone Else's Hair for Hair Transplant? In order to achieve this. you would have to be given the same harsh immunosuppressive medications that are used in other organ transplants. The benefit to risk ratio is skewed towards too risky for complications. Identical twins could however.

Answer: Using someone else's hair for transplant In short, no, you cannot receive someone else's hair for transplant. While technically possible if one were to go through the process of matching with a donor (like any other organ transplant) and then taking immunosuppresant medications to prevent rejection, this is not really feasible for a hair transplant.
