Thanks for the multiple questions. I will do my best to answer them!
Hair transplants are often thought of as a "male procedure," but we do get the opportunity to help many female patients achieve their desired hairline. We have treated female patients who experienced hair loss due to medical conditions or they suffered some form of accident or trauma to the scalp.
Medical insurance might cover some of the cost if the surgery is deemed to be medically necessary. The cost does not necessarily differ between men and women as the total cost is determined by the number of hair grafts that are needed, the technique used to perform the procedure, and any fees charged by the doctor or the medical facility.

Thank you for your answer! I asked because I am a female who is missing most of the hair or the top of her head. I used to have lush thick hair, and now it is so thin and non-existant. It went that way at the age of 28 and has been like that, ever since.
