Has anyone had a hair transplant to thicken a thin fringe?

And if so how much did it cost? My fringe is thin and stringy and it just seems to look awful most of the time (but occasionally not - can't quite understand how to get it looking ok). I had this problem a while ago and the hairdresser made it thicker but it made the rest of my hair look really thin and rubbish (there's this bit on one side that makes it look thicker than it is just because it all seems to cluster a bit and when that was gone it looked really shit). Then I had cancer and it all fell out and now it's grown back I can't quite get it right. Could they transplant a few lines of hair follicles and would that solve the problem? I've never heard of anyone else doing that but it seems like it might work.

You could try micro needling, that can work to stimulate hair growth and thickening.

I think I'd rather just get definite hair planted somehow if it were possible and not ruinously expensive!

But thank you for the suggestion!
