GFC stands for Growth Factor Concentrate — a highly advanced hair restoration therapy that uses your own blood’s natural proteins to stimulate dormant hair follicles, reverse thinning, and encourage new growth. It’s a refined evolution of PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy, offering a purer, more concentrated dose of growth factors with fewer side effects and faster visible results.
Key Growth Factors & Their Role
PDGF (Platelet-Derived GF)
Stimulates hair growth, boosts vascularisation and angiogenesis — essentially increasing blood flow to follicles.
VEGF (Vascular Endothelial GF)
Regulates blood vessel formation around follicles during the active growth (anagen) phase.
EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor)
Promotes skin and follicle cell regeneration, improving scalp health and hair quality.
IGF (Insulin-like Growth Factor)
Extends the active growth cycle of hair follicles, preventing premature hair loss
Cellular signalling begins
Exosomes interact with skin cells immediately, initiating repair, collagen stimulation, and anti-inflammatory pathways that continue working for weeks.
Post-treatment care & protection
Soothing serums, hydrating masks, and broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen are applied. Personalised aftercare instructions are provided.
Step-by-step Procedure
Blood Collection
A small amount of blood (20–25 ml) is drawn from your arm — similar to a routine blood test. Quick and painless.
Centrifuge Processing
Your blood is placed in a specialized GFC kit and spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the powerful growth factors — removing red blood cells, white blood cells, and other unwanted components.
Topical Numbing
A numbing cream is applied to your scalp to ensure the injection process is comfortable and nearly painless.
Scalp Injection
The concentrated GFC solution is injected subcutaneously into targeted thinning areas of the scalp using precision micro-needles by our dermatologist.
