If you’re searching for the latest solutions for hair loss and the expertise of a renowned skin specialist in Mumbai, your answer may lie in the innovative Growth Factor Concentrate for Hair (GFC) therapy, pioneered and practiced by Dr. Deepam Shah at Viva Aesthetic Clinic. As a board-certified dermatologist and hair transplant surgeon in Mumbai, Dr. Shah combines advanced science with years of clinical experience, helping people tackle concerns like hair thinning, bald patches, and alopecia with state-of-the-art treatments for optimal safety and results.
What is Growth Factor Concentrate for Hair?
Growth Factor Concentrate for Hair (GFC) is a revolutionary advancement over traditional Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. Unlike PRP, which merely concentrates platelets, GFC harnesses only the purified growth factors found in your blood’s platelets—leaving out red and white blood cells, which can trigger unnecessary inflammation. The process involves drawing a small amount of your own blood, isolating and concentrating the essential growth factors, and then directly injecting them into your scalp right at the hair roots where they’re needed most.
Benefits of GFC for Hair Loss Treatment
- Superior Precision: Only the purest growth factors are used, making treatment more effective and minimizing side effects like pain or swelling.
- Higher Consistency: GFC delivers a consistent, standardized concentration of growth factors every session—something traditional PRP methods can’t match.
- Faster Recovery: With minimal risk of inflammation and infection, the recovery time is quicker and more comfortable than older methods.
- Longer Shelf-Life: GFC preparations can be stored for up to eight hours at room temperature and up to seven days at cold temperatures, providing flexibility in treatment scheduling.
- Effective for All: This therapy works equally well in both men and women, whether you’re facing early hair thinning or more advanced hair loss.
- Minimal Side Effects: As the product contains no RBCs or WBCs—just the needed growth factors—side effects are generally mild and resolve within a week.
How Does GFC Compare to PRP?
Traditional PRP therapy, which has been around since the 1970s, has several drawbacks—lack of protocol standardization, variable results, and often increased inflammation or post-procedure pain due to leftover unwanted blood components. GFC overcomes these limitations through advanced lab processing, resulting in a procedure:
- Easier to perform;
- More comfortable for the patient;
- Offering greater reliability and measurable clinical outcomes.
