Something I have been considering for a long time now is getting a hair transplant. The issue is, they are fairly expensive and because I am a women, the doctors tend to be limited. Women tend to suffer from diffuse hair loss which means it is all over. I have lost about 50% of my hair since my teens and it is really sad for me. My hair was never super thick but it always covered my scalp. Now, I see so much scalp even when my hair is dry.

I looked unto a few clinics for the process. The one that shows a clear step by step plan on the website is the View Plastic Surgery. You can look at the page here. Does this seem legit?

The steps seem right and the recovery time lines up with what I have read online. The before and afters are limited however and I am not seeing any for women. They clearly treat women though as you can see on the page.

So my concern is that because I am a woman and may continue to experience hair loss with age, that I won’t be someone they would treat because the likelihood of a poor outcome and results. I read online a lot of women get turned away unless they have severe cases of hair loss that resembles a man’s. I know I can just spend a lot less and get a topper of real human hair which is something I have also considered but I would prefer to not have to deal with that.

I would like to have my hair covering my scalp again at the very least.

I have not been able to find the cost of hair transplants, at least not on this website. I am wondering if anyone here has gotten a hair transplant or is planning one. I want to know other’s experiences, especially if there are women who have or plan on having it done.

The process that you linked matches a lot of what I have read online, yeah. I can't say I have any experience getting this done though. 

Have you been to a local doctor to see if you qualify for it first?

I have read both. Some doctors say it isn't an issue for women, others won't touch a woman's scalp because there is a risk it doesn't work. I think it depends on why the hair was thinning or lost and your age. From my understanding, working on younger women is where the most risk is. Women that are 40+ in age, especially ones with male pattern hair loss is a bit different.

The cost ranges between $3,500 and $10,000 depending on the number of grafts.

There are clinics specializing in hairline lowering, part-line restoration, and temple filling using FUE/FUT techniques for women too.
