GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) Therapy
GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) Therapy is an advanced, evidence-based regenerative treatment for hair loss and hair thinning. It uses highly concentrated growth factors derived from the patient's own blood to stimulate dormant hair follicles, improve scalp health, and promote natural hair regrowth.
This treatment is particularly effective in early to moderate hair thinning and pattern hair loss, in both men and women.When GFC Is Considered
- Androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss) in early to moderate stages
- Diffuse thinning or reduced follicle activity
- Patients who responded suboptimally to PRP
- Combination therapy alongside topical/minoxidil or oral treatments for best outcomes
