Growth Factor Concentrate Therapy, often known as GFC treatment, is a focused growth factor preparation made from an individual’s blood cells that are highly safe and dedicated, and offer superior natural results.
Numerous growth agents have been added to blood platelets. The gathered GFC is then provided at the location for treatment with specialized equipment and tools. The entire procedure is non-pyrogenous, secure, and spontaneously regenerates damaged tissues without any platelet loss.
Since the treatment is made from the patient’s blood without any contamination, it has no adverse effects, it is completely safe, pure, and effective.
After a hair transplant, it is the best way to regrow lost hair. The most recent and cutting-edge hair loss treatment, GFC treatment in India, only requires 3–4 sessions to produce the desired outcomes.
Growth Factors associated with GFC Therapy
Blood platelets hold a variety of growth factors that support stem cell growth, migration, and differentiation as well as tissue regeneration and repair. As a result, each GFC has a different function in preventing hair loss. These are as follows:
Platelet-derived Growth Factor (PDGF)
PDGF stimulates angiogenesis and vascularization while also promoting hair growth. Additionally, it aids in the proliferation and chemotaxis of fibroblasts and the mitogenesis of endothelium and mesenchymal stem cells.
Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)
EGF increases mesenchymal and epithelial cell mitogenesis and promotes hair cell proliferation and regeneration. Furthermore, it simultaneously induces angiogenesis.
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)
VEGF promotes perifollicular angiogenesis in hair and is expressed in DP cells during the anagen phase of hair growth. In order to speed up the process, it also increases the size of the perifollicular vessels even during the anagen growth stage.
Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1)
IGF-1 stimulates angiogenesis, promotes total hair growth, and sustains HF growth.
