Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC)

GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) is an advanced, science-backed haircare treatment derived from your body’s own platelet-rich plasma (PRP). It harnesses natural growth factors, cytokines, and proteins to stimulate follicular regeneration and grafts repair.

Key Benefits of GFC:

• Hair Fall: Stimulates hair follicles to combat thinning and encourage growth.
• Minimally Invasive: Safe, autologous (uses your own blood), and free from synthetic additives.

GFC is ideal for those seeking a natural, long-lasting solution for anti-ageing, hair loss, or skin revitalization.

GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) leverages your body’s natural healing mechanisms to combat hair loss and stimulate regrowth. The treatment involves extracting growth factors from your platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and mixing them with the growth factors which are available in the GFC Kit and this pure growth factor which are then injected into the scalp to revive dormant hair follicles and strengthen existing ones.

The Science Behind GFC for Hair Growth:

Growth Factor Activation:

Concentrated growth factors (like VEGF, FGF, and PDGF) trigger cellular repair and increase blood supply to hair follicles.

Follicle Revival:

Nutrients and proteins in GFC “wake up” dormant follicles, extending the hair growth cycle (anagen phase).

Thickness & Density:

Strengthens weak hairs, reduces thinning, and promotes thicker, healthier strands over time.

Why Choose GFC for Hair Loss?

• Natural & Safe: Uses your own blood (no synthetic chemicals).
• Minimally Invasive: No surgery or downtime.
• Long-Lasting Results: Gradual improvement over 3–6 months, with maintenance sessions for optimal effects.

Ideal for: Androgenetic alopecia, thinning hair, or post-treatment hair recovery (e.g., after chemotherapy).

Yes, GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) is an upgraded and more effective version of PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma).

GFC is better than PRP because, it is a pure growth factor concentrate—removing unnecessary plasma for stronger results.

PRP contains platelets mixed with plasma, which dilutes growth factors.

Why choose GFC over PRP?

• Stronger Regrowth – Higher concentration of growth factors boosts hair repair.
• Longer-Lasting Effects – Maintains results better than traditional PRP.

GFC differs from a hair transplant in several key aspects:

• GFC is a non-surgical procedure with no downtime, while a hair transplant is a surgical process.
• GFC stimulates natural hair growth, whereas a hair transplant involves relocating hair follicles and solving baldness.
• GFC is most effective for early hair loss, while a hair transplant is best suited for advanced baldness.
• GFC typically requires multiple sessions, whereas a hair transplant is generally a one-time procedure, albeit with a recovery period.

For Best Results:

• Minimum 3 sessions (spaced 4-6 weeks apart)
• Severe thinning: 5-6 sessions
• Maintenance: 3-4 sessions yearly

Why Multiple Sessions?

Hair growth cycles take 3-6 months – GFC works progressively to:

• Stop hair fall (first 1-2 sessions)
• Activate follicles (sessions 3-4)
• Boost thickness (final sessions)

No, a GFC kit is not available for home use. It is essential for GFC procedures to be conducted by a qualified professional in a clean clinical environment to uphold safety and effectiveness. The result mainly depends on the Surgeons Experience over the GFT Kits.

Prepare yourself for a GFC session by refraining from blood thinners like aspirin and alcohol for 2-3 days beforehand, ensuring you stay hydrated, and avoiding heavy exercise within 24 hours prior to the session.

“Many patients describe minimal discomfort during GFC, similar to PRP treatment. To reduce pain and give a numbing sensation, a vibration sensation is used during the injection.
