Platelet Rich Plasma Treatment / GFC for Hair Loss
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) / Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC) therapy is an innovative and natural treatment for hair loss, utilizing your own blood to stimulate hair follicles. It is widely recognized in aesthetic dermatology for promoting hair growth and improving the density of thinning hair. PRP/GFC works by harnessing the healing properties of platelets, which contain growth factors that aid in tissue repair and regeneration.
How PRP/GFC Treatment Works?During PRP/GFC therapy, a small amount of your blood is drawn and processed to separate the plasma rich in growth factors and platelets. This concentrated PRP is then injected into targeted areas of the scalp, particularly where hair thinning or loss is most noticeable. The growth factors in PRP/GFC boost the health of hair follicles, encouraging them to enter an active growth phase and improve hair density.
Why Dermatologists Recommend PRP/GFC for Hair Loss?PRP/GFC treatment is a highly sought-after option for hair restoration due to its minimally invasive nature, effectiveness, and natural origin. Since the procedure uses your own blood, the risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects is significantly reduced. PRP/GFC therapy is often recommended for patients with early-stage hair thinning or androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness).
Key Benefits of PRP/GFC for Hair Loss- Natural and Safe: Since PRP/GFC uses your own blood, it eliminates the risk of foreign substances causing side effects.
- Promotes New Hair Growth: Stimulates dormant hair follicles to enter a growth phase, leading to thicker and stronger hair.
- Non-Surgical and Minimal Downtime: The procedure is simple, minimally invasive, and requires little to no downtime.
- Improves Hair Density and Volume: Ideal for both men and women seeking natural hair restoration.
