Hair transplantation can improve hair loss caused by necrosis of scalp hair follicles due to endocrine effects, and in this case, new hair cannot grow without hair transplantation. However, if the hair loss is temporary due to stimulation by hair dye, shampoo, medication, etc., the hair follicles still exist and can be stimulated to grow hair without necessarily choosing hair transplantation.
