Your Body's Own Growth Factors, Working for Your Hair
Is your ponytail getting thinner, your partition wider, or are you seeing more hair on your pillow? GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) therapy is an advanced, minimally invasive treatment for early thinning, weak roots and gradual hair fall. It uses concentrated growth factors from your own blood to nourish the scalp and support your natural hair growth cycle.
At La Densitae Lucknow, our hair restoration doctors and MD Dermatologist first find out why you're losing hair. Then we plan GFC sessions that fit your scalp.
What Is GFC Hair Therapy?
GFC is a further development of PRP. A small amount of your blood is processed so that the platelets release their growth factors. These are collected into a purified, concentrated solution, which is injected into the thinning areas of your scalp. There it helps strengthen weak follicles and support healthier, thicker hair.
PRP vs. GFC: What's the Difference?
| Feature | PRP | GFC |
|---|---|---|
| What's injected | Platelet-rich plasma | Purified growth factor concentrate |
| Concentration | Standard | More concentrated growth factors |
| Sessions usually needed | 4-6 | 3-4 |
| Comfort | Mild pinch | Often more comfortable |
| Best for | Early to moderate thinning | Early thinning, weak roots, post-transplant support |
Your doctor will recommend PRP or GFC based on your scalp analysis.
Who is GFC best for?
- Men and women with early hair thinning or a widening partition
- People with weak roots or gradual hair fall
- Post-hair-transplant patients who want to support their grafts
- People who want a non-surgical option
Not suitable for: completely bald areas. A hair transplant is the better option there.
Who should avoid GFC? (have your doctor review this)
- People with blood-clotting or platelet disorders, or who take blood thinners
- People with an active scalp infection, or who are pregnant or breastfeeding
- People with certain chronic illnesses. Please tell the doctor about your full medical history.
