Hair fall treatments

 

Hair PRP/ GFC

Both PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) treatments are effective for hair loss in both men and women. These treatments work by stimulating hair follicles and promoting hair regrowth. They are particularly helpful for conditions like androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness). 

 

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Hair Treatment:

PRP involves drawing a patient's blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting the platelet-rich plasma into the scalp. 

It can thicken, strengthen, and potentially stimulate hair growth from existing follicles. It's a non-surgical procedure with minimal downtime, though some redness or swelling may occur initially. 

Individuals experiencing hair thinning or early stages of baldness, particularly those with functioning hair follicles. 

Results vary, with some experiencing noticeable improvements in hair thickness and density. 

 

GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) Hair Treatment:

GFC is a more advanced treatment that involves concentrating growth factors from blood, excluding other blood components, and injecting them into the scalp. 

GFC often provides more noticeable results in fewer sessions due to the higher concentration of growth factors. It also promotes scalp health by reducing inflammation and balancing sebum production. 

Suitable for both men and women with early or late-stage hair thinning or alopecia. 

Generally considered to offer faster and more noticeable results compared to PRP, with fewer sessions needed. 

 

Key Differences between PRP and GFC:

PRP involves a simpler centrifugation process, while GFC utilizes specialized kits for more advanced processing. 

GFC provides a higher concentration of targeted growth factors, leading to potentially better and quicker results. 

 

GFC vs PRP Treatment : Key Differences

Let’s explore the major differences between GFC and PRP treatment:

 

Feature

PRP Treatment GFC Treatment

 Procedure

Centrifuged blood with platelets reinjected Growth factors separated and purified

Concentration

Moderate platelet concentration High growth factor concentration

Inflammation Risk

Slight risk due to WBCs Low risk due to no WBCs

Effectiveness

Effective over multiple sessions Faster, more potent results

Downtime

Minimal Minimal

Pain

Mild discomfort Less discomfort due to purity

 

 

Side Effects: GFC vs PRP

Both treatments are generally safe, but mild side effects like temporary swelling, redness, or scalp tenderness may occur.
