GFC Hair Treatment in Kochi
Skinpal offers GFC hair treatment in Kochi for individuals experiencing hair fall, hair thinning, and reduced hair density. GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) is a hair treatment that uses growth-factor-rich components prepared from the patient’s own blood. It is designed to support the hair follicles and create a favorable environment for healthier hair growth. At Skinpal, the treatment is recommended based on an individual assessment of the hair and scalp condition.
GFC, or Growth Factor Concentrate, is a regenerative hair treatment that uses growth factors derived from a small sample of the patient’s own blood. These growth factors are associated with processes involved in tissue repair and follicular support. The procedure involves collecting a small amount of blood, processing it to obtain a concentrated preparation containing growth factors, and carefully injecting it into targeted areas of the scalp.
How GFC Works
- A small blood sample is collected using the designated sterile GFC kit.
- The blood is processed according to the kit manufacturer's protocol to obtain a concentrated preparation containing growth factors.
- The prepared GFC is then injected into selected areas of the scalp by the dermatologist.
- Because the treatment is prepared from the patient's own blood, it is an autologous procedure.
Before Treatment
- Your dermatologist will assess your scalp and determine whether GFC is appropriate for your type of hair loss.
- Inform your doctor about your medical history and medications.
- Follow any specific pre-treatment instructions provided.
- Come with a clean scalp and avoid heavy hair products before treatment.
Aftercare
- Keep the scalp clean and follow your dermatologist's instructions.
- Avoid rubbing, scratching, or vigorous massage of the treated areas.
- Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and heavy sweating for the period recommended by your doctor.
- Temporary redness, swelling, or tenderness may occur.
- Follow the recommended treatment schedule and attend follow-up appointments.
Important
PRP and GFC do not work equally well for every type or stage of hair loss. Results vary depending on the underlying cause, duration and severity of hair loss, age, overall health, and individual response to treatment. Your dermatologist will explain the expected benefits, limitations, possible side effects, number of sessions, and combined with other hair-loss treatments.
