GFC Treatment

GFC Hair Treatment is a non-surgical hair restorative treatment, the most trusted dermatological procedure available today. Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC) therapy is a cutting-edge treatment that utilizes the body’s natural healing abilities. The procedure involves extracting growth factors from the patient’s blood. These growth factors are pivotal in tissue regeneration and healing, making them a powerful tool against hair loss. For patients, GFC hair therapy means a treatment that is not only effective but also tailored to their individual needs. Moreover, the procedure is relatively quick and involves minimal discomfort to the individual. GFC treatment is one of the most trusted dermatological procedures for hair loss available today.

Each case of hair loss is distinct, with varied underlying causes and patterns. At Ara, we consider various factors such as the patient’s age, gender, overall health, extent of hair loss, and specific goals. This thorough assessment enables us to create a treatment plan that is not just effective but also aligns perfectly with each patient’s unique needs.

Key Benefits of GFC Treatment:

  • Reduces Hair Fall: Effectively minimizes hair shedding and loss.
  • Revitalizes Hair Follicles: Stimulates dormant follicles, promoting healthier growth.
  • Promotes Hair Regrowth: Encourages new hair growth in thinning areas.
  • Strengthens Hair Grafts: Improves the resilience of hair strands against breakage.

How Does GFC Hair Treatment Work?

GFC treatment for hair loss is a highly safe and effective treatment that involves isolating growth factors from the patient’s blood for the best results in treating hair loss. The process of GFC hair therapy is as follows:

Step 1 - Preparation and Consultation: Initially, you’ll have a consultation with our expert dermatologists to discuss your medical history, goals, and expectations. They will explain the procedure, potential outcomes, and any risks involved.

Step 2 - Drawing Blood from the Body: 15 to 16 ml of blood is drawn through routine blood testing. It is collected from your arm and equally distributed in 4 GFC tubes.

Step 3 - Activation of Platelet and Release of Growth Factors (GFs): Drawn blood is placed for 35 to 45 minutes in a specific test tube with GFC, in an upright position.

Step 4 - Centrifuging the Drawn Blood: The drawn blood in GFC tubes is then put into a centrifuge to isolate growth factors from whole blood.

Step 5 - Injecting Hair GFC: Topical anaesthesia is applied to the treatment area to stimulate the scalp and prepare it for the GFC injection. The prepared concentrate is drawn into a syringe and injected into areas of the scalp that need the treatment.
