GFC Hair Treatment

Growth Factor Concentrate — the most advanced platelet therapy for hair loss

Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC) is a next-generation evolution of PRP therapy. Where PRP delivers platelets suspended in plasma, GFC uses a specialised preparation kit to extract only the active growth factors — PDGF, TGF-β, VEGF, EGF and IGF — at far higher concentrations. The result is a purer, more potent treatment with a lower injection volume, less discomfort and measurably superior hair regrowth outcomes.

GFC is prepared from a blood draw using a dedicated closed-system kit that filters out red blood cells, white blood cells and plasma proteins, retaining only activated growth factors at 10–50× their natural serum concentration. The preparation is then injected across the entire scalp using a standardised multi-point protocol.

Frequently Asked Questions About GFC Hair Treatment

How is GFC different from PRP?

GFC uses a closed-system kit to extract only active growth factors — removing plasma, red cells and white cells. The result is a purer preparation with 10–50× higher growth factor concentration than standard PRP, producing superior hair density outcomes in clinical studies.

How soon will I see results with GFC?

Most patients notice reduced shedding within 4–6 weeks and visible new hair growth at 3–4 months. Optimal results are seen at 6–9 months after completing the treatment course.

How many GFC sessions are needed?

A standard course is 3 sessions at 4-week intervals, followed by a maintenance session every 6 months. Your doctor may recommend more sessions based on your hair loss grade and response.
