What is GFC?

GFC is a next-generation regenerative treatment that uses highly concentrated growth factors extracted from your own blood. These natural proteins stimulate hair regrowth, skin repair, and collagen production — chemical-free, safe, and scientifically backed.

Primary Applications

  • Hair Restoration (especially in cases of androgenetic alopecia)
  • Skin Rejuvenation (for anti-aging, acne scars, and texture improvement)

How Does GFC Work?

GFC therapy involves a sophisticated process that concentrates the most potent growth factors from your blood to achieve superior results compared to traditional treatments.

  • Blood Collection: Blood is drawn from the patient (similar to a routine blood test).
  • Advanced Processing: It is then processed in a lab using a special closed system kit that separates and concentrates growth factors like PDGF, VEGF, EGF, and TGF.
  • Pure Growth Factor Isolation: These pure growth factors are extracted, providing a more concentrated solution than traditional PRP.
  • Precise Application: The concentrated growth factors are injected into the scalp or skin using microneedling or mesotherapy techniques.
  • Cellular Activation: Growth factors stimulate tissue repair, collagen production, and cell regeneration in the treated area.

GFC vs PRP – What's Better?

While both treatments use your own blood, GFC offers several advantages over traditional PRP therapy:

Key Advantages of GFC:

  • Growth Factor Purity: GFC provides higher purity compared to PRP's moderate concentration
  • Efficacy: More consistent results versus PRP which varies by individual
  • Comfort: Lesser pain and inflammation (due to absence of RBC/WBC)
  • Recovery: Quicker healing time compared to PRP
  • Efficiency: Fewer sessions required (3-4 vs 6+ for PRP)

  • Temporary itching or tingling sensation
  • Rare allergic reaction (extremely rare since it's your own blood)
