Condition Addressed
Hair GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) therapy is a non-surgical, advanced treatment designed to tackle various forms of hair loss and thinning by utilizing the body’s own concentrated growth factors. This therapy is commonly used for:
Androgenetic alopecia (male and female pattern baldness)
Early to moderate hair thinning due to stress, hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, or medical conditions
Alopecia areata (patchy hair loss)
Hair fall related to hormonal imbalances
Supporting scalp health and hair density after hair transplant surgery
The procedure involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, processing it to extract and concentrate only the most potent growth factors, and then injecting these directly into areas of the scalp experiencing hair loss. These growth factors stimulate dormant hair follicles, promote new hair growth, increase hair density and thickness, and improve overall scalp health.
Downtime
GFC therapy is minimally invasive and features little to no downtime:
Most individuals can resume normal daily activities immediately after the procedure.
There are generally no restrictions on showering or washing the hair post-treatment.
Mild side effects such as redness, swelling, tenderness, itching, or minor bruising at injection sites may occur but typically subside within a few hours to a day.
Patients are advised to avoid harsh hair products or chemical treatments (like coloring or perming) for at least 72 hours after the session to minimize irritation.
The procedure is considered less painful than PRP, as it uses finer needles and a more refined injection technique.
Outcomes
Outcomes of Hair PRP therapy are generally positive and supported by clinical studies and high patient satisfaction rates.
Most patients begin to notice improvements in hair texture, thickness, and density within three to six months of starting treatment, with new hair growth becoming more apparent over time.
Multiple sessions are typically recommended—often one session per month for three to four months—followed by maintenance treatments every four to six months for sustained results.
Studies report that a majority of patients experience increased hair density, reduced hair shedding, and overall improvement in hair quality, with satisfaction scores averaging above 7 out of 10.
Results are not immediate, as hair growth cycles take time, but with consistent treatment, PRP can offer long-lasting benefits and help slow or reverse hair thinning for many individuals.
Complications are rare, but possible side effects include mild scalp discomfort, temporary swelling, or, very rarely, infection or injury at the injection site.

FAQ
What is Hair GFC Therapy?
Hair GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) therapy is an advanced, non-surgical hair restoration treatment that uses a concentrated solution of growth factors derived from the patient’s own blood. These growth factors are injected into the scalp to stimulate hair follicles, promote new hair growth, and improve hair density and thickness.
How is GFC therapy different from PRP?
While both PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and GFC therapies use components from the patient’s own blood, GFC involves a more refined process to extract and concentrate only the most potent growth factors, resulting in higher efficacy, less discomfort, and often better outcomes in fewer sessions.
How does GFC therapy work for hair loss?
A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient and processed to isolate and concentrate growth factors. These are then injected into the scalp, where they activate dormant hair follicles, improve blood circulation, and enhance scalp health, leading to reduced hair fall and new hair growth.
Who is a good candidate for GFC therapy?
GFC therapy is suitable for both men and women experiencing early to moderate hair loss, androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness), thinning hair due to stress or hormonal changes, or those seeking to improve hair density and scalp health. It is less effective in cases of advanced baldness where hair follicles are inactive.
How many sessions are needed for visible results?
Most patients require 3–4 sessions, spaced about 3–4 weeks apart, to achieve noticeable results. Maintenance sessions every 2–3 months are often recommended to sustain improvements.
Is GFC therapy painful?
The procedure is minimally invasive and generally well-tolerated. A topical numbing cream is usually applied before injections, and most patients experience only mild discomfort or a slight pricking sensation.
Is there any downtime after GFC therapy?
There is minimal to no downtime. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. It is advised to avoid washing the hair for 24 hours and to refrain from using harsh chemicals or heat styling tools for a couple of days.
How long do the results last?
Results are long-lasting, but maintenance sessions are recommended every few months to sustain hair growth and density. GFC therapy is not a permanent cure for hair loss, so ongoing care may be necessary.
