What is a hair growth factor concentrate?

“Growth Factor Concentrate,” or GFC for short, is a pure, extremely safe, highly concentrated growth factor preparation made from your own blood that is designed to produce better hair loss outcomes.

Your platelets, a type of blood cell, hold a variety of growth factors. A select group of well-known scientists has succeeded in isolating these growth factors in high concentrations from your blood as Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC), which is prepared in a customized kit.

Your own growth factors are injected directly into the scalp, where they are given at a high concentration at the hair root by GFC.

 

APPLYING GFC OUTCOMES IN


  • less hair loss.
  • follicular rejuvenation in hair.
  • increased hair density.
  • strengthened shaft of hair.
  • a rise in hair volume.
  • stimulating the growth of hair.

 

What distinguishes GFC from PRP?
The use of Platelet Rich Plasma, or PRP, began as a thrombocytopenia treatment in the 1970s and gained popularity in the cosmetics industry in the 2000s. PRP is the biological product, or fraction, of autologous blood plasma that has a platelet concentration higher than the starting point. The result varies every time. The single spin or double spin methods were applied, since it was hard to remove WBCs and RBCs. Even the healing effect was linked to inflammation and pain following the procedure.

Many difficulties were encountered while employing this therapy to cure hair loss: it produces platelets rather than growth factors; there were no established protocols; there was uncertainty about the quality and quantity of the results; and the process was complex and entailed contradicting outcomes.

 

Only large concentrations of growth factors are obtained by platelet activation, and GFC therapies are also produced from the patient’s blood. As a result, there is no platelet loss and the entire process is quite simple to carry out. Furthermore, the GFC can be stored for eight hours at ambient temperature and for seven days at 4 degrees Celsius, in contrast to PRP. This leads to the best possible overall outcomes, reduced risk of discomfort, inflammation, and infection, and a shorter total operation time.

 

The following are some advantages of the GFC hair treatment:

 

  • It increases hair volume and thickness while reducing hair loss.
  • For people who are experiencing the early stages of alopecia, it is very appropriate.
  • It is appropriate for both genders. Using a syringe, the blood is drawn, and the growth factor is analyzed further to ensure that the GFC treatment for hair is prepared without contamination.
  • Unlike PRP treatment, the process doesn’t extract any additional blood cells.

 

It’s also important to remember that it takes three to four sessions for the GFC treatment for hair to start working. In order to lessen discomfort and swelling, it is also used with other oral or topical treatments. In most cases, any adverse effects subside a week after the therapy session.
