I have trichotillomania, aka when i get stressed i pull out a certain area of hairs one by one. Well.... ive had it for 5 years. I usualy pull in the school year time and in summer i completely stop so te hair can grow back. This year it hasnt grown back. Its only little stubbles and they are no longer growing. My mom said i most likely killed the roots from pulling so much is that possible? She also suggested that since im not pulling anymore I could get a hair transplant, but ONE i dont even know wat exactly that is TWO am not sure im suitable for one because im a 13 year old girl and THREE i want this transplant, but ONE and TWO are in the way, plus which kind of doctor gives these? A normal doctor? A dermatologist? FOUR from pulling so much i have a scab on my scalp in the bald area will this affect the surgery? Help me please!! thanks.

If you are positive you have stopped, consult a dermatologist, or ask him for a referral.
First, I would go online and look up products that help hair grow back. If you had killed the roots, the hair would fall out, and you would be bald.
The scab will heal [ put a very thin coat - size if a bead maybe - of antibacterial ointment on it, twice a day until it does. ] They won't do anything until it heals.

Hair Transplant surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her breast reduction, tummy tuck and facelift surgery in India by the company called Tour2india4health Consultants .The Price for the surgery she paid in India was very less. She paid 30% of the cost she was quoted in America.

Tour2india4health Consultants is very famous in India. They arrange cosmetic and plastic surgery for foreigners in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as the breast reduction, tummy tuck, facelift and other cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
