Hair Transplant Surgery for Women

Hairstyles are one of the most important things for women. With strong and healthy hair, any hairstyle can be achieved, building confidence and self-esteem. However, not every woman has a healthy and thick head of hair. Some women have hair loss problems due to various causes. These problems can’t be treated with medication, hair follicle stimulation, or maintenance with regular treatments. 

Grow and Glow Hair Transplant Clinic in Bangkok, Thailand, provides a hair transplant service for women by doctors certified by world-class institutions to help take care of and solve hair problems for women.

Understanding Female Hair Loss

Hair transplants for women are often used to solve the physical problems of a pinched head, a wide forehead, or women who want to grow hair along their hairline to increase it or adjust their facial shape. Hair can also be transplanted and grown to cover scars. Forehead hairline transplantation, in addition to creating a desirable face frame, also can change the look of the face. It’s suitable for women who want their faces to look noticeably softer.

How Do Hair Transplants Differ for Men and Women

Hair transplant surgery for women often addresses hormonal, genetic and other common reasons for hair loss in women.

Hair transplantation for women uses the same treatments as men’s hair transplantation. Doctors will transfer the hair root cells from one area to another. However, female hair transplantations may have different therapeutic goals. Most of them are mainly done for aesthetic reasons, not to treat hair loss and thinning hair. This is because women are less affected by the hormone Dihydrotestosterone, known as “DHT”, which is the main problem for thinning hair and male-pattern baldness in men. 

How Much Does a Hair Transplant for a Woman Cost?

The price of a forehead hair transplant depends on the number of grafts used and the hair transplantation technique chosen. The number of grafts used may be around 1,000-2,500 for a female hair transplant. A forehead hair transplant will give the recipient a permanent, beautifully shaped forehead. Many women decide to undergo forehead hairline transplant surgery because the results are definitely worth the expense.

Techniques of a Women’s Hair Transplant


Hair transplantation for women is a permanent treatment. Women who have a physical abnormality on the scalp may lose their confidence and self-esteem, or it may cause them anxiety. Whatever your problem is, you can consult with a hair transplant specialist to find the right solution. The doctor will help assess the number of grafts required and design the hairline that is most suitable for you, including suggestions to solve the problem of a wide forehead or a pinched head. You’ll definitely see better results.
