Quite unlikely: With hair transplantation the donor site is typically the posterior scalp, which is almost never affected to the degree that the crown/frontal scalp are. Everyone knows the typical fringe of hair that remains on otherwise bald men--this is where the hair follicles for transplantation are derived. However, you may not need transplantation. Medical options often do the trick. See a dermatologist.
